    NUD and slow growers.

    So it’s a milestone birthday gift to myself. I wanted something to compliment my Wunderkammer Ike handmade mahogany soprano. I’m all about the mahogany sopranos. I decided on a Kiwaya KTS-7.

    Ok. I've hogged the limelight for long enough but! The final piece arrived today. The S1. Pics? This is the favourite. Nice popping Martin sound. I have tried the Martin alikes and sold them. Really like this, nice dark wood grain and the intonation is spot on as checked before I played...
