Hi guys
Brand new Ken Timms style "O" soprano for sale. It's a beauty and it's a shame I can't keep her. Picked up from the post office just a few hrs ago - I need to sell to help offset the cost of another purchase... Took it out of the box to take some photos, and test all is well (yes, really sweet uke).
Looking for $550 including shipping to USA, a bit less if you are located in Australia (because shipping will be cheaper).
The text from the original advertisement is below:
