Ordered Super Concert from Kamaka 10/18/11

kamaka_4_life · Oct 19, 2011

Hey UU members, haven't been on in a looooooong time, but I just wanted to say that I went to Kamaka today and placed an order for a "special" super concert! Got a bunch of mods to it, and the grand total is about $2,036. However, this past weekend I got 1st in the 16-18 age division at the Duke's Ukes contest traded it in, and got credit for the new one! Can't wait, and I will keep you all posted once it is done

Haha I exchange the Soprano I won from the contest, do I received $750 credit. Good thing it's not $2,000!! LOL

kamaka_4_life · Oct 20, 2011

Hey guys, so i'm wondering if I should call Kamaka back, and ask them if they could inlay my initials on the fretboard? That way it is really personal haha, what do you guys think?

Trinimon · Oct 20, 2011

THAT would be very personal indeed. At you got the skills to back it up. lol
The only iffy is if you ever decide to sell it, not that you'd want to resell your Kamaka.
