SALE IS BACK ON - AS BEFORE, PRICE WILL BE REDUCED $10 PER DAY UNTIL SOLD - THE LAST PRICE WAS $730 SO THAT IS WHERE IT WILL START OUT THIS GO-AROUND - CURRENT PRICE IS $600 - HOW LOW WILL IT GO?
I am selling my Kiwaya KTS-7 solid mahogany soprano in my ongoing effort to downsize the herd. I purchased the instrument new from HMS and have had it for about 6 months now.
There is one issue that needs to be mentioned. When changing out the strings the last time, I wasn't paying very good attention to the task at hand. The C, E, and A strings did not come out of their slots easily so I, in my haste, gave them a jerk and a bit of the bridge wood came off at the 3 slots on the back side of the bridge. Fortunately, the damage is only cosmetic. The slots are not damaged and there is no issue with the strings being anchored securely. This is clearly shown in the photo below.
Other than the above, the instrument is in excellent condition.
The instrument was set up by HMS and plays very easy. It is currently strung with Martin clear fluorocarbon strings with a wound low G.
A sound sample video is included below.
I upgraded the original tuners to Gotoh UPTs. The original tuners are in the case.
Includes a nice hard shell case as shown in the photos and an Oasis humidifier.
I am asking $600. which will include shipping within CONUS.
I prefer and accept PayPal.
Thanks for looking...!!!
