$359 from elderly (free shipping to me) Thats not bad at all.... probably the worst thing that could happen to me, ever since I have my super awesome kala solid lacewood with spruce, I figured I should lay off the tenors untill i could save up for a upper mid end koa uke... this is right in the "wrong" pricerange. My lankai laminate koa sounded great I can only imagine how much better it will sound with a real koa top
