Thanks to everybody who entered in the contest, the turnout was really good - 18 entries!

I hope to do more contests in the future, so any ideas for what might be next would be appreciated.

Songbook Giveaway!

April 20, 2008 | 9:46 pm

 

I have three used (but in great condition!) ukulele songbooks that I will be giving away on May 1st. The songbooks are: E Kanikapila with a play along CD, Jumpin’ Jim’s ‘Ukulele Island, and Jumpin’ Jim’s ‘Ukulele Tips ‘n’ Tunes. These are all books that a beginner would get the most out of; no tabs or advanced chords.

To enter for a chance to win just comment on this post and I will put your name in the hat. The last day to enter is April 30th, and the drawing will be held on May 1st. The winner will hear from me via e-mail.
