In the recent threads about Flea & Mainland knock-offs, a common theme is the apparent targeting of a well-established "name" getting copied. Here's another:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Watermelon-Style-Pineapple-Soprano-Ukulele-Blue-Back-Side-Free-Black-Bag-/150841448052
The Kala Watermelon "pineapple" uke is the target here & notice that though the color of the body & back is identical to the Kala original, they call it "BLUE" in the add instead of the more "blue-green" that it and the Kala have.
I almost purchased this for my wall collection of colors, but will resist & get a Kala instead.
(I know its a cheap uke & that some might say that the Kala original is overpriced, but for me, I'll defer to the owner of the Kala brand that was my first uke a couple of years ago.)
Mahalo!
