Unfortunately I didn't get quite what I was hoping for with the Pono I had for sale so I'm forced to sell my vintage Kamaka Soprano.
From what I can tell, it dates back to the 1920's or 1930's. When I bought it, it needed some work...it had a big, open crack on the soundboard, and the back had separated a bit from the sides. I brought it in to a local luthier and he did wonders. For comparison, here is the thread I originally started about it...it shows pictures of the damage.

Anyway, I really like this uke but I find soprano fretboards a little cramped for me so it's going on the selling block. I'm hoping to get $475 for it. It will ship with the vintage hard case pictured. I will include shipping within the continental US. It should also be noted I am leaving for a family vacation on Saturday 4/5. If this sells by Thursday 4/3 (tomorrow), I can get this packed up and shipped out before I leave. If not, I return back on Tuesday 4/15 and will ship out the next day.
