Most people think of the ukulele as a traditional Hawaiian islands instrument, but did you know it's actually a distant cousin of the classical guitar? The Portuguese introduced them to Hawaii in the late 1800s as a smaller alternative to the guitar and the rest, as they say is history. No, really, there is a ton of history on them. Look it up. It's super cool.
