I found this baby at an estate sale, the people didn't know what they had and I got it for a steal, now I need some cash. Mainly, I just prefer a soprano size and I love my Kiwaya KTS-5 more than life it self! This is a really great sounding uke. It's fitted with new Worth CM strings, the action is great and it plays like a dream.
There are absolutely no cracks! And very little wear and tear. It's in excellent condition for what's potentially a 70+ year old instrument. It looks and sounds great! Not sure of the year but based on my research, I'm thinking it's late 30's or early 40's (mostly because of the style of tuning pegs).
Here's a youtube video I uploaded so you can hear it (despite the poor audio quality of the video and my lack of talent!):

Don't know what else to say but if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
I'm selling on Ebay, here's the link:
