If you are hoping to buy a ukulele, you can pay anywhere from $50 to thousands for ukes, but decent ukes that stay in tune and will serve you well can be had for around $100. Funky Frets in Boyertown specializes in ukuleles and is owned by Curt Sheller, a talented ukulele player. Marty's Music in Annville also has a good selection. Lancaster's Guitar Center will have some ukes as will Lifesong in Quarryville, or you can try any of the online music stores.
