If anyone is interested, I've got some in-progress pics of my Ko'olau Pineapple tenor in my profile photos.
I'm curious to hear how it sounds when it's playable.
Stunning uke Craig. Can't wait to hear it!
Ray,
The reason I chose my current Ko'olau's woods were due to a high-end classical guitar I once owned with Brazilian rosewood and spruce. The Port Orford, although listed as a cedar, is its own specie and is supposed to sound like a mixture of cedar and spruce. I'm unabashedly going for a more classical-Spanish-like guitar sound with the Pineapple. I've got a slew of classical arrangements to learn and plan to eventually record them using this new uke. By then, it should be open (in about a year or so).
Sounds like you will get what you are going for and I look forward to adding the new cd to my collection. Keep them coming Craig!
Regards,
Ray
