A ukulele is pretty inexpensive, as little as $20 in most places and that is more than enough to get you started. There are hundreds of YouTube videos that can help you learn to string, tune and play the ukulele. Share a couple of good ukulele videos with your dad and say you want to learn to play like that! I would recommend Jake Shimabukuro as a serious musician and not a comedy routine. The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain is another good one to share. And check YouTube for videos of ukulele players doing one of your dad's favorite songs.

It is definitely an entry level ukulele, one that is often used for beginning classes in schools and groups. I've seen reviews that say they like it and others that say they don't. If you can hold it and play it before you buy, you can determine whether it will work for you. There are many inexpensive models available, you might be well served to call a store or online place that sells ukuleles of various types and consult with them.
