I've compared my UT1K to every in-stock tenor at the Music Emporium in Lexington, MA and the Collings' volume and sustain was superior to all of them. It sings. Unfortunately, they didn't have a Kamaka in stock.

I have a UT2M. they are one of the best. I wish I could justify 2 collings, never mind one.
