My fanciest (ie- priciest) uke (and instrument for that matter) is my Breedlove Masterclass Koa Tenor. I love the tone - it’s clear, has great bass and treble, and projects well without any harshness. It is without a doubt the best sounding uke I own. When being held, it also feels more substantial than any of my other instruments. Intonation is great, and the action doesn’t seem too high. The one thing that bothers me is that it seems a bit harder to play than any other ukulele I own. Fretting/strumming is a touch more difficult for me on this one - the strings just feel more taut. It’s nothing terrible, but after playing an hour or so of more difficult material with stretches and difficult chord structures, my wrists feel it. I haven’t really felt this in other high end ukes, and was wondering if there was something I’m missing. Haven’t taken it to a tech yet, but wanted to see what thoughts may be on it. I really, really like it and want to love it, because it wasn’t cheap! I would take it to a tech before getting rid of it, but the thought of trading/selling it has crossed my mind. That part could just be my UAS out of control, but I feel like I should be blown away by all aspects of an instrument of this price. Thoughts?
