Other than Pono, what brands would you put into the "Tier 2" category?
...all I can think of is Koalana and Mexican-made Martin.
For the record, I consider most Ohana, Mainland, and Kala "Tier 3"...
...though a few "Limited Editions" reach "Tier 2" level (and their lower stuff hits "Tier 4".
"Tier 2" ukes seem to be underrepresented in the market...
...possibly a difficult sales position to be in
CLARIFICATION
Tier 2, as I've defined it is purely based on Price: $400-$700.
This range is typically higher than Ohana, Mainland, Kala, Lanikai, and etc. .... but below the K's.
