Best sounding cedar tenor uke?

[bacchettadavid]

Having some idea of your budget range might help. Great cedar ukes vary widely in price.

How could you play these two and not buy one, the other, or both?

Where do you go to play an Ono, a Kinnard, and a KoAloha cedar?

*Raises hand.

Guilty!

I haven't publicized it, but I'm having a cedar/rosewood KoAloha Black Label built, so along with my Ono that's already for sale, I'm likely going to let go of at least one more... the cedar/walnut KoAloha with the koa rosette or my cedar/palo escrito Kinnard thin-line.

As @Leongdad mentioned, they all sound great and have their own unique voice, but I can't keep em all.

Lol, as luck would have it, I have a friend with these great ukes!

On the low end, some Kala cedar tops

Very happy with my Kala cedar-top. (The older model with the padauk binding and the slotted headstock)

It’s only August but I nominate this for post of the year .

Hah right?! It should be the motto around here!

I've been leaning towards the Ohana tk-50g or ck-50g as my next purchase based on sound samples. Cedar top with solid Rosewood at a good price.

I'm trying not to think about it, since I have a few months wait ahead of me still. Luckily I have some nice ukes and plenty to learn to keep me occupied!
