hmm, steel string ukulele's?
 
well, since ukuleles are small and can fit in backpacks, i'm deciding to get one. and they're cheap.

so, i dislike nylon strings and i prefer steel's.

is there such a thing or are all ukuleles nylon?

I've never heard of a steel string uke, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. I play uke as it happens. Why don't you go for a banjo instead? Or just kill yourself now to save the world the pain?

nah banjos are kinda big.

Kill yourself then. Although I think in future lives you should consider giving yourself more options.

Yeah I want a ukulele but I don't know how the tune the fuckers.

Norma, it's GDAE. (from 'top' to 'bottom')
G- (second highest note)
D- (lowest)
A- (second lowest)
E- (highest)

Dig? Top four of a guitar, reversed. (with the obvious difference of the G being a high note...where a guitar would have a ...a low note... y'know?)

I had one, but the novelty kinda wore off after a couple days. there's only so much you can do with it...
