this instrument has been to a luau or 2. plenty of honest wear. solid player, almost crack free, one tiny one near one edge.
all Koa, top, back , sides, neck, fret board, bridge.
ebony nut and saddle.straight neck.
top does not feel flat between bridge and bottom. buckle rash on back.
this uke is LOUD. I believe it was designed so the Hula dancers could hear the music. If you desire to be heard above the crowd, look no further. you can tell this was no wall hanger, and the fretboatd shows extensive wear on the firsT 3 frets. the seam at the base can be felt, but is not cracked. I have noticed no changes in this uke in the time I have owned it. selling to get funds for a custom tenor, MAYBE ONE OF Bob's castoffs. haha.
strung with the 8 string set from Southcoast.
comes with what looks to be original case which is missing the locking part of 2 of the 4 latches, and has one bent back hinge [ the fabric that keeps the top from swinging all the way is missing] case is still in great shape for a vintage case. 100% functional.
$550 + shipping. would like to avoid paypal fees so a check or MO from a reputable UU'er would be prefered. I've sold many ukulele's here on UU and many other instruments [ including a high dollar Gibson guitar and mando] and have 100% pos feedback. lusting for a custom tenor [thinking a Moa or Rose] so a trade + cash possible.
