I keep thinking I *need* a laminated Kiwaya or Famous as a "take anywhere" uke.
(Despite great sound and playability, I couldn't get past the plastic in the Flea.)
What is people's experience with importing to the US from Japan? How much is charged?
I'd love a long neck as per Barry's recent review, but no one is offering them state-side, so you have to go through a Japanese company.
The price on this (Chinese) Kiwaya is enticing:

And I think this one is gorgeous:
