I should have name the thread "THE ALL PLASTIC SOPRANO UKULELE". I realize that some are posting Ukuleles that are not entirely made of plastic (this includes the top and neck, fretboard, bridge, etc, except for the tuners of course). Please, to keep the thread pertinent and interesting, let's try and "think plastic!" ;-) Thanks to all!

OK, so there's been some amount of talk here and there on these forums regarding FULL PLASTIC Soprano ukuleles (for those interested). Mainly reviewing or talking about "the good ol' days of the Maccaferri era...(the Holy Grail of plastic ukuleles)but that's long time gone. The question should now be WHO (today)imitates the Islander the best? So there's talk about the Japanese Pineapple, Peace & Heart models by Takumi (made in China!...) and on the other side of the pond there's the OUTDOOR Ukulele USA (with the "square" fretboard back) and there the Flea Market Fluke.... There's also a new model that 's out and that no one talks about or even has reviewed... The all plastic WOODI usa soprano in various color schemes.

I have a small collection of Ukuleles and I would really like to get a plastic model in my collection. IMHO a plastic uke should be inexpensive and "descent" to play with and sound.
What's your take on this? Thanks!
