I had one of their acoustic guitars, but, I have never been a big fan of their "necks" (on guitars). The ukes I saw were actually nicely done. They are laminated.
I bought an Ibanez dreadnought acoustic while in college in West Virginia (late 70's) - the tone and playability were superb - but then, that's what I would have expected from a $200 guitar in 1977-78. Neck was great - and then along about 1988, back in upstate NY, the neck separated near the heel.
I brought it to the local music store, because I'd been dealing with them for years, and knew the owners, and and had it fixed. (I'd had a bad experience at one of the other music stores in Saratoga Springs who supposedly had an incredible luthier, so didn't return there.)
About a year later, the neck separated in the same spot. I loosened the strings, put it in the case, and have left it in the upstairs bedroom since - I replaced it with an Epiphone Jumbo, and an Ovation shallow body.
I still loved the tone on that Ibanez, so when I saw the Ibanez ukes on display at another local music store, I joyfully pulled one down and played.
Then I tried another one. Then a third, and a fourth.
I tried all 6 they had, and there was no joy to be found. They just felt as if all of the life had been sucked out of them.
I'll try again next year.
Maybe.
