after some weeding out and selling, i am down to my Ko'olau Koa concert with worth brown (a terrific instrument) and my Kala laminated mahogany KA-S with aquila (turned out to be a fine soprano).
Now i find myself playing more and more jazzy bluesy old standards. The Ko olau is a little too bright for where i want to take the music and the Kala is- -well, a soprano. I need a rich, full,warm bluesy sound.
I plan on searching out BIG K tenors to listen to. I am thinking solid mahogany or mahog mix maybe what i need. I like my ukes simple, high quality without too much bling. Tried a Kiwaya KTS-4, it was'nt The One.
1) Do you know of a quality concert that i should hear or should i concentrate on tenors? i am thinking less than $1000
2) which tenor would you suggest?
