I've been eyeing the solid-mahogany soprano model. Has anyone had a chance to try one in person? They look really nice (aside from the headstock decal), I really like the soundhole inlay. I think it's cool that they also use the same nut spacing as the Kanilea models.
Anyway, the nut/saddle are both nu-bone. Any opinion on the tonal quality of nu-bone vs. real bone? I've seen videos and other promotional material that advertised the improved transfer of tone and boasted that the nu-bone material was superior. Is nu-bone actually more dense than the real deal? I'm not being picky btw, just curious .
Finally, how do they stack up to brands like Mainland, Ohana, etc; that are similarly priced?
Thanks for your input in advance!
