SOLD
Hi All,
I bought this new in 2017 in Maui while on vacation. This appears to be new old stock as this is a discontinued model from Mele. It has a smaller body than their new sopranos. This one has a few scratches on it from being in the store so long that are hard to photo.
My favorite feature of this mahogany model is the thin neck. It reminds me of a Loprinzi. Also, the nut width is 1.5".
Setup is great. It looks to have a wood (ebony or rosewood) nut and saddle. The tone sounds smoother and warmer than my Martin S-1 but every bit as loud. It's really fun to play and thin neck fans will love it.
The geared tuners work well and surprisingly don't make the neck that heavy. Overall build of the ukulele is light.
Asking $250 shipped and it comes with a nifty gig bag.
