I was in Denver the other day and dropped into a music store I like. This was hanging on the wall.
I played it for about an hour and Oh MAN!!!! It was SWEET! I could have put it on my credit card (and very nearly did), but then all my ukes and I would have to find a nice refrigerator box to live in when my wife saw the bill. Now I'm wondering what I can sell to come up with that much money...
I was surprised at how different it felt from my Martins. The neck had a much shallower profile. It was very comfortable. Not that the Martins aren't, mind you. It had a really punchy tone, but that might have been due to the Aquilas it was strung with. I've got Martin Fluorocarbons on my Martins. I had my Kiwaya out in the car, and brought it in to compare. The Kiwaya has Worth Clears. The Gibson was a lot louder, and really really light.
Well, if it's still there after I win the lottery, I'll get it!
