What makes a custom ukulele like Jake's Kamaka different than the standard Kamaka? Obviously, inlays and bling, but I would guess that Jake has something done to enhance sound and/or playability? If so, what?
Same question regarding standard Kamakas and deluxe Kamakas. Other than the obvious, (rope binding on deluxe models, tie bridge vs. slot bridge, and ebony vs. rosewood fretboard and bridge), is anything different? Any noticeable difference in sound or playability?
I know some of the custom/deluxe models have a cedar or spruce top instead of koa, but my question is regarding the all koa models.
