Thought I would share my write up about what I saw at Summer NAMM 2010

Mahalo for the report. I especially liked Kiwaya's new line of Bamboo "Paulele" 'ukuleles, very "green" ecologically. I wonder if they have a bamboo pineapple in the works.
Awesome coverage! I love those new Kala amps, and the bamboo Kiwayas look fantastic. Any word on pricing?
Really? For a ten watt amp?Kala amps list for about $140.00
One question, where is summer NAMM held?
You wrote that the LoPrinizi with the "extra" sound holes was LOUD. Did you get to play the single sound hole LoPrinzi and was it loud also? I am on a quest for a loud tenor
Thanks !Nashville TN, right downtown at the convention center

As pointed out in another thread, these look identical to the US Blues A100GT amp which is sold at Guitar Files for $80. http://www.theguitarfiles.com/product_id-2714.html
Update: I've seen it under $70 at some other online vendors, including Amazon.
I sent them a check for a deposit for a custom tenor or concert. (can't decide yet). THe one wiht the sound ports are called "nova." They said they will be back before July so I have time to decide. But you can get that in tenor for sure. They are really nice and I am sure they would hook you up with whatever you want. I think the Nova looks cool but its more expensive. I was explained that there are not mere holes but the ukes take much longer to be constructed with the sound ports.
Should I get tenor or concert? I want loud too but has to be "warm". I was thinking all mahogany. But would spanish cedar be better?
