I have a classic old plastic uke, and although the line drawing hula girls on the headstock are certainly alluring, the Arthur Godfrey "uke player" chord playing button device is a real turn off.

Now don't get me wrong, I have nothing against artificial sexual stimulants or anything like that, but as a musician, I feel someone should truly learn all their chords before placing the uke between their legs and getting off.

Granted, I could just take the "uke player" off and go it old school, but I've been told that would severely effect the value of a classic Arthur Godfrey Plastic Uke.

So no experimentation has begun, yet.

I have questions about chords though. Are there certain chords that feel better?
Are major chords like a romp in the hay whereas minor chords are a more solemn and quieter church choir loft tryst?

And what about diminished and augmented chords? Is that too kinky?

Do whole tone scales immediately bring about a dream sequence feel?

Thanks in advance for any further information you can offer.
