I haven't done an NUD for a while, but this one deserves one. I recently got in a used Kiwaya KTC-1 concert, and it is a wonderful instrument. Came with UPT tuners installed. I've been through a few other ukes lately, nice ones in koa, acacia and mahogany/spruce, but the all- mahogany tone just hits all the right buttons for me. This one sounds loud and sweet, and as usual for Kiwaya, plays like a dream. Martin M600 strings sound great on it, but I'd also like to try Nylgut or Nyltech eventually too. Anyone have a Kiwaya concert, and what strings do you like on it? I had the cool tweed Oahu archtop concert case already, and the uke fits like a glove in it. Happy camper here.
