I have only been playing ukulele a short while. Somehow I have amassed 5 ukes. The most recent being an Ohana CK 50WG purchased from Mim. I had for a brief time a Lanikai SMC that while beautiful - I just couldn't love the sound. The Ohana is just what I wanted for a finger picking concert. Did I mention that it is loud-in addition to the clear and distinct tone? That one coupled with my Keli'i soprano and I think I am good to go. Not to mention the other 3 which all have their applications. I really don't want to get a tenor-shoot, I already have a baby Taylor (mahogany) so I don't think I need one of those. So.....................no more UAS for me! Thanks to Mim for being very helpful and cooperative in doing the exchange for the SMC! Do you think it will last..........................????
