Not mahogany, but may be worth considering...

Rappsy,
Thanks for sending the link on the Collings UT2 Koa.
The other week I was able to pick up a used Collings UT3 Koa and love it. After playing it I liked it so much that's why I'm now on the hunt for a Collings UT2 Mahogany Uke. I really like the sweet/warm sound of Mahogany. So I will keep my fingers crossed that a UT2 Mahogany in excellent condition shows up on the Ukulele Underground Forum soon or someone lets me know where there is one for sale.
Thanks again,
Pete F

CW5, I can totally understand your quest for a Mahogany Collings tenor. Since owning a UT2 (western shaded) with a spruce top, I've been blown away by the quality and feel of the instrument. I've been looking for a Mahogany UT* also, but I am going to put that desire on hold until next year. I guess you've spotted the white mahogany UT2 at Acoustic Music Works? it's the only new one available that I could find - check out the demo just for the pleasure of it if nothing else.
Best of luck in your search.

Hi CWS--I have a near mint UT-1 with haircut headstock if you are interested. You can e me at garyfra@verizon.net for more details. This is the actual instrument: https://reverb.com/item/2611733-collings-ut-1-ukulele-haircut-headstock. The reason i'm selling? i bit off more than i can chew--I'm a guitarist at heart ( i have a Collings OM2-H, among others) and simply don't play Uke enough to justify keeping this in the closet. I am located in Maryland. Best--

Yes, I have seen the Collings UT2 White Mahogany at Acoustic Music Works and I called Steve the owner about it. I have purchased guitars and a mandolin from Acoustic Music Works and I have always been very pleased. However, I'm going to stay away from the White Mahogany body! Thanks for saying something about it.

Their is a used ut2 mahogany on reverb for $1895.
I saw the white one and like how it looks but currently not in the market. Over my budget. Haha.
I'd also like to know if their is a negative side to that model. They also had a used one for less that might have sold.

I always prefer the looks of the natural Mahogany wood over the White on a ukulele.

CW5 - I find the Walnut the other way over Mahogany, quite a bit brighter...
The White UT2: I wasn't keen on it myself at first, I think it's the pick guard trying to be too guitar-esque and in the wrong position for me. It's growing on me but I'm waiting - there will be more choice once Collings finish the new run of Waterloo guitars - apparently.
