It is with a heavy heart that I list this ukulele for sale. I ordered this custom ukulele from Donna Loprinzi last fall and received it right before Christmas 2017. It's the ukulele that I have played every Sunday in my church band. It's a luthier built ukulele, made in Clearwater Florida. Loprinzi ukuleles have a great reputation, and I have not been disappointed with the quality of this ukulele at all. I'm selling it because I'm just not comfortable with the thin neck. I recently acquired a new uke that fits my hand better, so this one (sadly) needs a new home. This would be a great uke for someone who prefers a thinner neck on their ukulele.
Concert scale. Solid cedar top. Solid Rosewood back and sides. Maple binding. The Loprinzi walnut and maple stripe on the neck and head stock. Satin finish. Compared to my KoAloha concert, the Loprinzi is a more petite concert ukulele (see pictures).
The things I upgraded or customized ......1 7/16 inch / 36mm nut size. Ebony fretboard and bridge. Extra fret marker on third fret. Gotoh UPT tuners, maple binding, and MiSi pick-up.
The Ukulele is in very good condition with two exceptions. It's getting a little shine to the finish where my arm and hand have rested. It's not glaring, but I can tell it's there. It also has a tiny ding in the finish on the lower bout, near the edge. I don't know when, or how this happened. Perhaps it was something in the pocket of my gig bag???? It's a cedar top and satin finish, so I guess it's a softer wood and more susceptible to a ding? I have close-up pics of the ding. It's a surface dent that's hard to see straight on. I have lots of pictures, but no sound sample. The MiSi pick-up works flawlessly and the charger will accompany the ukulele. It charges in 1 minute, and holds a charge for 12-16 hours as far as I have been able to tell.
I paid $920 for this ukulele. Price drop to $550 for it. The price includes the custom hard shell case that Loprinzi sent the ukulele to me in (very nice case that fits the ukulele perfectly). The price also includes shipping in the continental US with tracking, insured, and well packed. I have sold two ukuleles on UU and had no complaints from the buyers. Paypal payment, CONUS only.
PM me with interest or questions.
