Ive been looking around with a hard case of UAS. I want a solid wood uke to upgrade from my laminate. My main priority is to get a uke with that sweet sound thatll put me one step up from where I am now. Ive considered banjoleles as i posted another thread a couple days ago on that. But I've startes thinkong mayve i should go for a solid wood concert before i go for the banjolele. That being said i am looking at the ohana ck 270g, mainland mango concert ( or either of the other woods, i cant decide) and the pono AC. I am really drawn towards the acacia wood because i think its just beautiful, but i dont know much about Ohana brand ukes, are they good? And are they as good as mainlands or other brands in that price range? And i have heard good and bad things about ponos. Mostly good with a couple bad experiences which leads me to believe that theyre a great company despite what ive heard. And mainland i hear nothing but solid reviews, so the main questions are how would you guys rate these 3 companies in terms of quality ukes? Which one would you go with and why? What are your thoughts and councils to a newbie to the ukulele community?
PS both looks and sound are crucial for me, i dont want unplayable wall art, but i dont want to sacrifice looks for sound. Id like to keep them both. I dont care much for fancy inlays and what not, i just love aesthetics of natural woods with the sweet sound that comes from solid wood.
Thanks guys!
