Thanks folks. Bruce is in Vietnam so the uke came slack stringed so I'm working on keeping it in tune for a few days but I will try to do a song with it in a few days. It's all solid Koa wood. The neck is mahogany with a rosewood fingerboard. The inlay is hand done not CNC machine. Bruce Wei makes excellent ukes and so does Taisamlu (I have 2 of his) but stay away from Anitoniosai I had one from him but I luckily sold it. It was ok but didn't sound very good.
