FS: LoPrinzi Custom Koa Soprano (UK sale) - SOLD

SOLD

A Loprinzi Custom Koa Soprano, with mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, & tortoise-shell binding. Mother of pearl position markers. Satin finish. The scale length is 13 ¾ “ (35cm), but the neck joins at the 14th fret, 19 frets in total. Grover black/silver friction tuners. A strap button has been added to the bottom.

This is stunning to look at – the koa seems to shimmer and change as you move it in the light. I can only find one small defect, a tiny dent on the curve of the body, upper side, at the back, where the koa meets the binding (tried to show this in a close-up photo). Other than that, it is perfect, with just a little shine from strumming on the upper bout. A previous owner noticed some splintering inside, around the curve of the body, and although a luthier said it wasn’t a problem, he had it patched & glued, a very neat job.

The sound is as good as the looks. Very mellow, lovely rich lows, and the slim neck & extended scale make it a joy to play. Selling to make room and raise funds for something else arriving soon...

It comes with a good hard case, a perfect fit.

Currently strung with Fremont Blackline Medium, but it has also sounded good with Martin M600 and Worth Clear.
