Not too long ago, I posted a thread about Zooey Deschanel's uke. What the heck was it, and where could I get one?? It turned out to be a Kiwaya K-wave, and after searching for them I found out they were discontinued (bummer) but I absolutely fell in love with the wine red one they used to make.

I loved this uke but didn't hope to get one since my budget is tight and I'm getting ready for a 300 mile move. So I couldn't believe it when UU member Nuprin told me he had a wine red K-wave and decided to give it to me!!!

It arrived on Wednesday but unfortunately I was out of town getting stuff moved. I got back in town last night and oh, what a gorgeous instrument it is! I am totally in love with it, and it sounds wonderful too! Its tone is as clear as a bell and very crisp, and louder than I thought it'd be. I can't wait to try it plugged in sometime. And I can't decide what I love best about it-- the shape of the body or the rich red color or the seamless maple neck and fretboard.

Nuprin, thank you so so much! I am, and will continue to be, completely blown away by your generosity. I promise to do justice to this beautiful uke and when I get settled in to my new place, I will sing its praises through a video. :D

My favorite part would be that everytime I picked it up, I would remember how great the folks here at the UU are. :)

Congrats on the new uke! Seems like someone may need to update their siggy...

And of course, the obligatory "can't wait to see videos!" but really, I can't wait to see some videos! lol

And Mel, I totally agree with your comment. Ahem...
 
WOW that rich red color matches your hair perfectly, what a CUTE picture! Congratulations to you Nats (couldn't happen to a nicer gal), and kudos to Nuprin, you da man! ;)

As a Telecaster man, I just have to say,

Jealous!
 
Okay, actually, I retract my previous statements about the K-Wave Teles, after seeing this one. :eek: That is really, really cool. And shiny.

As they say "Leo got it right the first time..." another thread, another forum...

As much as I prefer Teles, I do still have an affinity for their little Stratty sisters.

And yes, many blessings upon Nuprin for such generosity.
