1. Collings UC1 (#741) w/ original hardcase

Spec: http://www.collingsguitars.com/Instruments/?ID=58

This is my first serious uke! Built in 2012. Bought from Gryphon with great setup. One-piece Mahogany top and back. The Mahogany is medium-light figured, which is unusual for the "1" series. The satin finish on the back of the neck had been rubbed off a bit due to regular playing in 2012 (it has been kept in its case unplayed since 2013). Except some very light fingernail scratches (barely noticeable) on the top right of the soundboard, the body of the uke is extremely clean, definitely no dints. Currently strung with fluorocarbon strings. For sound sample please visit my YouTube channel.

Price: US$900 shipped

2. aNueNue Custom Series Mango Tenor w/ L.R. Baggs 5.0 pickup & hardcase

Spec: http://www.anuenue-uke.com/html_version/#frame_ukulele_16

All solid Mango body. Mahogany neck. Rosewood bridge, fretboard, and body bindings. Abalone rosette. L.R. Baggs 5.0 pickup and heel strap button installed. Professionally set up and plays wonderfully. Bought directly from Taiwan aNueNue in April 2014. You can call it brand new because I hardly had time to play it. The Mango bookmatches have some gold curls and they shine and ripple beautifully under lighting. Near mint condition, no dints or scratches. It doesn't have an original hardcase but I will include one which fits nicely. Currently strung with LaBella strings which give it a warm tone yet keeping the clarification.

Price: US$780 shipped

Price adjusted.

A member told me that the previous Chinese homepage link I provided for the aNueNue spec said it used plywood mango rather than solid mango. This is not true. It must be a translation problem. You can go to the updated English homepage. The reason why I didn't provide the English link is that this link hasn't updated their product list. They only list the "Standard Maui Mango" series. But as you can see, the standard version has a solid mango body too. The one I'm selling is "Custom Maui Mango" series, a higher model with figured wood, rosewood body bindings, and abalone rosette, of course with a solid mango body too. Just to make it clear. :)
