THIS IS SOLD! Thanks!

I bought this new a few months ago from Hawaiian Music Supply. It is a factory second. Currently strung with Aquila Nylgut High G, which sound awesome IMO. It will include a nice Ivory colored hardshell case made by Rainbow Musical Instruments that I paid $100 for. Also supplied with a Herco humidifier and two extra strings sets: Ko'olau Mahana wound Low G and Worth Clear Low G (this was a double set, but now one set, as I used the other half of the on another uke).

Now for the bad. It is a factory second as noted by the slash mark on the label in the sound hole. There are a few spots of rough edges, see pics. Also a small imperfection on the corner of the bridge. All of these issues are purely cosmetic and do not affect the sound or playability of this fine instrument.

If you are interested in hearing what it sounds like you can visit my YouTube channel in my signature below and check out "Sister Christian" and "Tell Me Why," both recorded with this very ukulele.

I'd like to get $675 shipped to the CONUS. If you are interested or have any questions, please contact me at: ecv31@hotmail.com

Thanks!

Good luck with the sale Eric, I hope it moves fast for you.
 
That's a Marue case. I bought one a couple of days ago, currently shipping from Singapore. I can't wait.

This would have been a good deal for me. A few days too late. :)

Eric, that' a raging, red-hot and steaming deal. I think KoALoha tenors now go for nearly a $1000, and without a case! The blmes are minimal for a daily player uke.

I really love that Sister Christian video, btw.

This will be snatched up in the next day, I'm sure. If I didn;t already have one, I'd slay it! -- STeve

P.S. I just noted that you're adding a couple sets of strings, too. I'm going to faint.

I'm sure this will be gone very quickly. If I didn't have one already, I would snatch it up from you. I love that case...I'm going to have to look at getting one of those.
 
Eric you're letting this go?! I was so excited to hear that you were joining the KoAloha family! :)

Man I'd totally keep this, but I just got another Pohaku yesterday. So I need to help pay for it.
 
I just saw that thread. That is a good looking Pohaku! Did I play yours in Hayward?

I played one at Gryphon Strings last year and it was amazing. I don't blame you for selling this one. :)

Plus you don't need 3 tenors... unless you're an opera singer I guess. :p
 
Yeah I think you played the Olive tenor. The one at Gryphon was the one that started my Pohaku fever. I wanted to get that one, but I was too late.
 
i got a koaloha super concert direct from their factory with a bigger ding exactly where yours is and very heavy rough edges on it..i paid full price..maybe cause i live in northern calif they sent to me?
it sounds good but i am done buying production ukes..i have bought/ordered 4 full custom ukes and 2 special order ukes since then....i learned my lesson..

good luck selling your factory second...
