Hi, looking to step up a little...I would like a bright sounding uke that will project. Budget is $200.
The Cordoba 21T is not yet available, Solid spruce w/ mahogany B/S.
The 24T is Solid cedar w/spalted maple B/S.
The Kala is solid spruce/mahogany B/S. My biggest problem with this uke is that is has a gloss finish. Not crazy about that for the neck and concerned the gloss top could hamper projection.
Was looking at a Ohana, but the only spruce tenor has a slotted headstock with back leaning tuners, not crazy about that.
Am i correct in assuming a solid mahogany top will be softer/warmer?
Any comments, suggestions? Really need to stick with this budget.
Thanks in advance.
