Just got this uke and I had to post my thoughts.
I picked up a second hand AnueNue Vision 1879 koa soprano at a reasonable price with a bit of play wear after umming and ahhing for quite a while.
I'd sworn of sopranos after struggling to get a decent sound out of them for a year or so. I think it's a mix of my playing getting better and finding the right uke for me. In the end I couldn't resist this one and after playing it I'm super impressed.
These are inspired by the Kumalae Gold Award 1915 ukes and having owned one of these previously they are a great "copy" of them with the playability of a modern day uke. Light in construction and very playable. Just a fun uke with a bright booming sound for the size like the original Kumalae's.
I couldn't find much on the forums or the net generally about these little guys so thought I'd add to what's out there. These were made a few years ago so they aren't common but for the price second hand they're a cracker. anyone else got one or had experiences with them?

but this is one that might hang around for a while. I used to have a Martin C1K (another koa uke) and that's the one sound wise that I regret selling.
