Concert Fluke, with rosewood fretboard/metal frets, pickup installed, tech says an undersaddle, not sure what, but it works. Recently replaced the stock crappy Grover 2B tuners with much better Grover 6B. Has MF grip strips on the back, and a zip tie channel thingy glued on back to loop a string thru for using a strap. Some honest play wear on the top from years of strumming, stain on headstock, probably from tuner, nut is chipped on end near G string, but works fine, no need to replace. Comes in original Magic Fluke gig bag. $165.00 includes CONUS shipping. Too many ukes here, and playing more soprano now, so this one deserves a new home.
This uke has an interesting history: it was the road uke of Ken Kanaka, of a band called the Crazed Mugs. He played this one in tiki joints all over the southeastern US, and it was recorded on their album Find Forbidden Island. You can hear it used on these songs:
