Hey all,
Well, after checking the USPS tracking website 16 times a day, the first of my two ukes arrived from HMS this afternoon. I was pretty confident at least one of them would get here today, so I took the afternoon off work to make sure I was home.
All I can say about this uke is WOW. First of all, it's gorgeous, without any imperfections. Some of the details I hadn't seen on these before online, such as the KoAloha name on the bridge and the build date on the inside of the neck visible through the sound hole.
Second, it sounds gorgeous. Suffice to say my $30 Ashton sounds very much like the toy that it is next to this instrument.
Third, it's so easy to play! It's going to make learning a ton more enjoyable that is for sure!
Here are some pics. Sorry for the poor quality, only got the phone available to me right now.
Now just gotta wait for the mainland mahogany tenor to get here!
