Cool thinline uke, with a big sound. Famous FS-0, identical to the Kiwaya KS-0, but branded as Famous for domestic sales in Japan. The usual great Kiwaya construction and action, compensated bridge, HPL mahogany looking body, fretboard is walnut, I believe. For their size (about 2/3 as thick as a standard soprano), these put out surprising volume, and excellent tone, especially for fingerstyle, as other UU'ers have shown in their fantastic videos. Small size makes these the ultimate quality, non-plastic travel uke, and friends have been amazed at the big sound that comes out of this little uke. No dings, exc shape, except for some honest strum wear beside the fingerboard extension, which could probably be buffed out...or just add more! Comes in original gig bag, zipper tab broke off, a paper clip is in there now for the zipper handle. $165.00 shipped in CONUS only.
