SOLD-------
I picked up this soprano here on UU a couple months ago because I wanted to check out the classic Martin Soprano in its latest build. The previous owner, while trying to remove the saddle, broke off the end. The A string may be 1 billionth of an inch lower but I don't feel any difference so I just left it alone. I did change out the G string as it came to me with a low G on it. A low G on a little soprano? I didn't like it so I put a Hilo high G on it. Now, it sounds like a soprano should. This uke has a surprise. It has geared tuning pegs installed; not the ordinary friction pegs. Pretty cool upgrade. It comes with the official Martin embroidered gig bag which is nice.
Why am I selling it? I couldn't resist Tom's cigar box uke he posted here a couple of weeks ago and since I'm not really playing this Martin, it needs to find a good home and help me pay off Tom.
That's it. I paid $250.00 for it plus shipping and that's what I'm selling it for. The same uke without the peg upgrades is selling on Elderly for $379.00. So, this is a good deal.
