Hello everyone, I have only been playing for a couple months so I'm nothing special but I am about to purchase a Kamaka gold label soprano ukulele and need your opinions on what year it is for sure. What throws me is the fact that most Kamakas seem to have an extended fingerboard/fretboard and this one does not. The owner says she purchased it in Hawaii in the 60's, but could this one be 50's even though it is a gold label ??
One of the tuning dials broke 6 years ago so she had all new tuning dials put on it. Also there is a chip in the Bridge but I didn't wager it to be a show-stopper.
bottom line.... i would value your opinions after looking at the photos I have sent. I am buying it for $300 anyway tomorrow but can you give me your opinions on age and model and thanks very much in advance!
