Ok I have decided to eliminate the other threads and repost this as it should be.
I have decided to sell my William King A3 longscale tenor in order to continue to raise funds for my son's college bills. It is serial #076.The ironic part is that my son's name is Will King. Selling a Willaim King to help William King.
This is a difficult one to part with. William King no longer builds instruments and this already has become a collectible. And it is one of the best sounding ukes that I own. Excellent tone and volume with great sustain. But I don't reach for it enough because of the 19" scale to justify keeping it over some of my other ukes. So it has come time to bid thee adieu.
It is beautiful. Curly Claro Walnut with curly maple binding and a Swiss Spruce top. Here are the specs:
One piece curly Claro Walnut top and sides
Swiss Spruce top
Curly Maple binding
BWB top purfling, black side prufling
Abalone rosette
Ebony fretboard,head plate, scalloped heel cap, and bridge
Ebony/Abalone bridge pins
Spanish cedar neck
MiSi pickup
Oahu hardshell case
It is strung with Savarez Alliance strings reentrant, but they are due for a change. It is in excellent conditionwith no dents or dings. It does have minor surface scratches from the play that it has had. I have included a sound sample, but this is only the second sample that I have recorded and have yet to figure how to get the bugs out and get a nice clear recording. I apologize in advance, the sound is not great.
Price: $1600.00. USPS Express overnight shipping is included. Paypal please.
