One great thing about the ukulele is that it’s easy to learn, making it a great choice for beginners. And, it is perfect for these types of spooky tones, with its quick, plucked attack and minimal sustain. Those characteristics lend themselves nicely to unearthly tones you can augment with a little reverb and some imagination.
