Stock Ukuleles with Radiused Fingerboard?

maxmax · Sep 12, 2015

Hi Gang!

Wondering if you could tell me what ukuleles are available to purchase today, as in not custom ordering, with a radiused fingerboard?

I know some Ko'olau, higher end Pono's and the Collings have them. Am I missing any others? Looking at both tenor and concert sizes, perhaps even super soprano.

Many thanks in advance,
Max

Cocobolo Ukuleles are radiused. They can sometimes be found at Elderly, Fan, maybe a few other places without special order

I strongly recommend the Pono Pro Classics. I have three tenors. They are easy to barre and I just love them.

Pono recently released a Pro Classic Concert with a radius neck.

There are many customs with radiused necks that you could pick up at a bargain price, 2nd hand.

very few non-custom brands come with radius boards simply because it adds more expense cant think of any others than you have mentioned

Hi Max,

All of our ukuleles come standard with a 12" radius fingerboard, and we recently added "through the bridge stringing" as well. Our ukes are handmade and start at $329, which is a great value compared to many of their Hawaiian counterparts.

We recently created a Facebook page to post pictures and prices of our available ukuleles. I just posted 8 new ukuleles yesterday, and there will be more coming next week. Please take a look to see if anything catches your eye:

If you don't have access to Facebook, please contact me for pictures and the details: cocoboloukuleles@gmail.com

Also, please visit our web page for more information about our ukuleles: http://www.cocoboloukuleles.com/the-details.html

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks again,

Kevin

Incorrect, at least this is my experience:
I bought an Ibanez concert a few years ago, and one of the main reasons was that it was advertised as radiused. It is flat as a pancake. I got ripped off.

I second Cocobolo ukes. They have a wonderful tone, easy to play and great eye candy. I didn't have a concert size so bought one. I loved the tone so much I got a tenor. For the price of an all solid wood with a radius fretboard this can't be beat. Plus Kevin is fantastic to work with. All businesses should have customer support like his.
