The ukulele will forever be known as the sound of the Hawaiian islands since that's where the stringed instrument, a modified version of a Portuguese machete, originated.
People around the world have fallen in love with the soothing sounds made by that little four stringed strummer, but would a $20 ukulele work for a beginner or is that cheap model merely a toy?
George Elmes did the fingerwork to find out what the real difference is between a cheap starter ukulele and a top of the line model that cost about a grand, and his research is music to my cheapo ears!

Of vital importance is whether you have perfect pitch, which is defined as the ability to get a ukulele into a skip in one throw.
