VG Condition. Due to recent personal changes in my life I am selling some of my instruments. Crafted by Mele Ukulele Company located on the Island of Maui , this baritone sized "Guitarlele" has an all solid Koa wood top, with solid Mahogany back and sides and was ordered with several upgrades, including cutaway body style, a B-Band pickup with preamp and Gold plated tuners. As a 6 string nylon strung instrument, it offers several options. It is an outstanding travel guitar. The acoustic tone is full and mellow, and plugged in it will amaze you with outstanding tone.

Nice wbwbw rosette, and black binding on both the front and the back.

This 20-1/8" scale instrument is complimented with Kanilea GL-6 Strings tuned ADGCEA.

Nice chipboard case is included.

The MSRP on these is $1,299.00... not including the additional upgrades (Pick-up, case, gold plated tuners) and shipping costs!!

cougarman8...Sent you a PM

The Mele is still available...

I'm in San Diego, Ca.
 
When I bought this Guitarlele, it was passable in tone/sound... but it didn't set the world on fire in my opinion either.

Once I bought my Kanilea GL-6, I realized what a Guitarlele can actually deliver. I decided to put the Kanilea GL-6 STRINGS on this one just for grins, and this instrument was transformed. Is it as articulate as the GL-6...NO...not even close! Am I selling it at 1800.00? NO...not even close!

Had I put these strings, on this instrument, prior to buying the Kanilea, I probably wouldn't even know what I was missing!

(Kanilea GL-6 Strings recently available at HMS for 9.50 + Shipping)

Thanks to UU for providing this service...you guys ROCK!
