Folks,
Just curious why Kawika's seem so popular. They are laminate wood instruments and priced higher than some solid wood instrument with great reputations such as Pono. Since I began as a guitarist I don't really understand that concept. Do uke's not open up? Are these instruments just made so well that is doesn't matter if they open up? I've never played one so I have not point of reference.
Thanks!
