Hello all,
We are proud to now be working with Elderly Instruments in Lansing, Michigan. They run a tight ship on their new instrument inspections, but we passed with flying colors!
Check out the email that I received from Ray Aleshire, their Purchasing Department Manager:
Hi Kevin –
Very nice! Everyone here was drawn towards them, just as I think customers will be. They are very distinctive and sound pretty darn good too. Both passed the shop inspection - they were right at our specs for string action (a rarity from most small makers). The fretwork was fine all around. That is also a rarity; we usually do not see that right off the bat. When I told people the price they were even more impressed.
I think they will move fairly quickly -- they are very attractive instruments at a really good price. Uke collectors like different, and they certainly are unique. Consensus thumbs way up!
Thanks much for contacting us. We look forward to working with you.
Regards,
Ray Aleshire

Also, I have attached a few pictures that I took before I sent them.
