I am considering buying a Loprinzi mahogany soprano. What do you think of them, anyone own one or has played one. How do Loprinzi stack up against other instruments in a similar price point. Thanks for your help
Two things I like about them:
1. Really thin neck.
2. The neck connects at the 14th fret to the body making the soprano scale feel a little roomier.
Also, a total bargain right now...$295 new!

I just bought the maple one. I had one years ago and it's one of the few ukes I miss.
Never heard of them--sounds Italian. Stradivari made some pretty good fiddles. Go ahead, buy one; ahh, you don't have a baritone or a Banjolele yet . . .

One of the best kept secrets out there. Handmade in America. Ukerepublic sells them. They do have a thin neck which I love. Build quality is as good as any k brand.

Great to hear you think so highly of them, I have been drooling over the Maui Music retro you have for sale..........somebody needs to buy that.
Funny story, the one that you just linked is the exact one I was thinking about buying. I like long neck sopranos and had emailed that store a few questions earlier today but with the time difference I did not expect to hear back until late EST.
Then you post the link, it is a great bargin as both you and Phil pointed out and I panicked.........thinking someone will now see it and steal it right out from under me. Well they can't do that because I just ordered it. All your fault d-mace
If you hadn't snapped at this quite so quick, I would have LOL. I've been looking for longneck soprano for a long now but nothing else has struck my fancy that is within my budget . Your gain, my loss. Enjoy.
