Today was U-day...received a Kanilea K-2 CP satin on my front porch this afternoon! Of course I knew it was coming...;-D

Just can't wait, so this will be short, more later...

I'm sure it's found it's forever home.

huge box left on my porch...

I now know what "plays like butter means"...:shaka:

the dynamic duo...the Martin will probably be re-homed soon.

Congrats Danno! Dontcha just love the pretty reddish hue of koa? My koa top Ohana is pretty too, sometimes I pretend it's an Hawaiian uke!
I'm curious (or nosey) why do you want to give the Martin away? (You can give it to me if you like)
I saw/heard Craig and Sarah's new Kanilea ukes last month...they wouldn't let me play em cause I kinda had some drool on my chin....
 
Congrats. You got some great looking koa on that Kanile'a!

well, I'm not giving it away, just would like the money and it probably won't get much use now.

thanks, Doc, for blowing up those pic's! It looks really nice in the right light...I love that it has enough curl to look good, but not too wild, I've heard that straighter grain koa sounds better than the real curly type. Not that I could tell the difference.

Kanilea makes some of the prettiest ukes out there. The gloss tenor I had was stunning. congrats .
