SOLD: 2016 I'iwi Koa Tenor
SOLD: Up for sale is a gently used, 2016 I'iwi Koa Tenor Ukulele (by builder, Charles Fukuba) in excellent condition. I am the second owner. It was originally purchased from Hawaii Music Supply and it is set up well with excellent playability. This uke has great resonance, a warm tone and has exceptionally playability/comfort. One of the most pleasant sound ukes I’ve played, either strummed or finger-style. The tone balance is amazing. Love this uke, but I've got some car repairs and income tax due … and my never ending quest to down size my number of ukes.
There are no dings or dents, only some very small marks on top from restringing (below bridge), playing, and strumming (upper bout). Overall I’d give it a 9+ /10.
The uke will be well packed and comes with an arched top hard case. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Here are the specs:
* Beautiful, curly Hawaiian koa top sides and back
* Ornate 3-piece back with beautiful inlaid strips.
* Ebony binding top and back
* Ebony radiused ebony fretboard and bridge
* Ebony headplate with I’iwi bird inlay
* Abalone purfling on top
* Abalone rosettes
* Abalone position diamonds
* Mahogany neck
* Gotoh UPT geared tuning keys
* Hand rubbed glossy oil finish
* Hardshell case
Currently Strung with Oasis brights and a Freemont Soloist low g.
Recent sond sample: https://app.box.com/s/5trrfzg4v8gmrep4lvpnie8nz9gbtg8b
