For a beginner, I'd be more in the T1K camp. I've played these in stores and they do sound and play quite nice.
The best thing is that you are getting a decent first ukulele, not that $100 ukes are necessarily bad, but it will return most of your investment if and when you want to move on. My first uke was a soprano KoAloha that returned what I paid when I sold it.
I like the brighter sound of koa and coming from a soprano, that may be more appealing.
Finally, If you want a vintage mahogany, you still have a grand left to get one.
