Sound sample of Eunice the reso-uke, first with nylon strings then with steel strings. I think the steel sounds better, what do you think?

Like the snappy tune!! Also like both ways... first is old simple timey sounding...steel has quite a cleaner clear sound to it....maybe steel but I have to say either way for me....Meow^..^

Very nice!

Yep, steel!

Yup.  She is a loveable keeper.  You have a nice relaxed but perky, bluesy sound.   I liked  the nylon sound.   But steel wins, no doubt.

Nice instrument and performance!  Steel has nice loud and bright tone, but nylon is also good.

Well played both ways, but steel string tone fits and makes that beauty  more lively!

I guess I could install a piezo then acoustic volume wouldn't be an issue. I just really don't  feel like taking it apart again. lol
