New Uke Day! Well...kinda

MauiWowie · Jun 9, 2011

Finally got our uke from jvann, and I have been without a Uke for about a week and it seemed like I havent played for a very long time. It is a KoAloha Crown bridge Tenor and it is in mint condition like its brand new, but it was made in Jan 2009. I could not find 1 problem with it. I love the action and the feel of it,the weight is even lighter then the Pono MHTSH I had and sounds loud and clear. I switched out the Worth strings to Aquila just because I like how they feel and it still sounds really good. Might try out D'Addario (J71) Strings and see how I like them.

Anyways heres some pics....

AND HERES A SHORT VID...

Stunning! Hope you have a wonderful time with it

I don't have a crown bridge, but my Koaloha tenor is easily my favorite uke. It's easy to play and loud as all hell. It sounds absolutely perfect all around. Enjoy it!

Im trying to make a video but the camera and mic on my Mac Book Pro sucks, when I play the uke the sound gets all messed up because its so loud. XD

wow, that's a beautiful ukulele. A lot of people dislike the headstock of Koaloha but I actually think it's really nice. Congratz on the new uke!
