So I'm at my local music store looking for a hard-shell case to protect my Kala KA-TEM on an upcoming roadtrip, but instead I find a used EleUke TCF-TMHP/TB, circa 2008. Looks like just the thing for playing at the airport and hotel during the trip, with minimum hassle getting it on the airplane.
It seems to be a little more up-scale than alot of the other EleUkes I've seen -- looks like a mahogany body/neck with striping down the middle, with a dark brown wood layer on the top and headstock (rosewood??). Nice inlay vine pattern and logo on the headstock (mother of pearl??), and a lighter striped wood (maple??) for the fretboard.
As you can tell, I'm guessing what kind of woods the instrument is made of. Is anyone familiar with this model and can identify the actual woods used? Detailed specifications would be great -- anybody have a brochure for this model? I tried googling but nothing came up for this specific model. Any info would be appreciated!
Thanks,
