I was looking to buy a nice ukulele and was really considering the Pono MC or AC, then this Pono MCD came up on eBay, so I bought it.
I originally had a Kala CEM which does sound great for a newbie like me, but the sound of this Pono, even to my untrained ears is so much better.
Fuller, crisper, and more mellow at the same time.
It was purchased originally 4 months ago and I have restrung it with Living Water strings which really makes it sing, (it was strung left handed).
Before this I also bought a nice tenor from somebody who makes them as an amateur luthier. Top is Alaskan spruce, back is American walnut with burr elm and sycamore, neck is mahogany, pink ivory and sycamore, bone nut and bridge, rosewood fretboard, and purpleheart headcap.
Strung with low G, also with Living Water strings.
It's also got a lovely tone, and great sustain, and I am enjoying learning fingerpicking with it.
