I've been admiring the beautiful vintage Ohana SK-39/SK-390 recently, but unfortunately I just bought another soprano that should arrive tomorrow. Too bad about the timing. Good luck on the sale.

I haven't tried Shubb brand capos or any of the U-shaped cradle capos, but I have tried bungee and rubber band style ones, and cheaper C-shaped ones. This Planet Waves ukulele capo is by far the best...
Thanks for this. Just lovely.
Welcome to UU! Congratulations on a beautiful dream ukulele!
Bidding ended on the ukulele a couple hours after my original post. I did not buy the ukulele, because of the uncertainty. I'm sure if I had a chance to handle and play it, it would help my...
Wasn't sure which sub-forum this question belonged, but "Buying Tips" sounded reasonable...
I spotted this "Seller Refurbished" Koaloha on eBay being sold by Ukulele Lab.

If you include the one that I bought for my kid that kicked off my dive into ukulele, I bought 13 in 2020. All used - only 4 were over $100, and only 1 of those 4 was more than $160.
About a month ago I needed to widen the holes on a Kala KA-SML-SLNG because I wanted to switch from the stock geared tuners to GraphTech Ratio tuners. The holes needed to be expanded from 8mm to 9mm...
I voted for "1-5" but, like others have stated, I hope to sell off more than I buy in 2021.
Congrats on the new uke, Cluze! Can't wait to see some pictures...
I was also tempted by the Uke Like The Pros big sale, but decided to hold off.
The one piece koa top and back look impressive in a world where we now mostly see book-matched tops and backs.
richntacoma pretty much sums up my feelings - my ears like the sound of a soprano, but my hands find far more comfort playing an instrument with a concert scale and roomier fretboard.
I have had a...
I must have gotten an older version. I measured .225" at the base of the shaft, then measured .185" where the hole for the string is located.
Sorry to resurrect an almost 1 year old thread, but I had questions about these Ratio tuners having just bought a set to put on a newly acquired Kala KA-SML-SLNG (NUD post coming soon). I tried to...
I just bought a set of GraphTech Tune-a-lele Ratio tuners off of Reverb. Can you explain what part of the shaft you are measuring to get these measurements? Would like to know so I can determine if I...
Pretty happy with my Snark tuner, but if everyone says this is the best tuner and it's 60% off, i gotta try it.
UU forums are great, but sometimes they cause me to spend money that I did not...
The Ukulele Site item numbers are usually 6 digits. Is it this one?

Uke Like The Pros is having an additional 25% off Black Friday sale for next 24 hours on select Koaloha models. Looks like mostly Koalana and Opio line, but I see one Pikake soprano at $783 before...
Nickie, do you mean stuff like this?

If possible, please try and include your Kala KA-SSLNG in this comparison, too! Thanks!
My Aquila Red Low-G string just broke overnight while my ukulele was in the case. So this post comes at the perfect time... thank you.
I wasn't able to find much info about this model on UU or other sites but have learned that this is The Rebel's first production model, dated 2014. I couldn't even find this model on The Rebel's...
Last night I removed the 2 shims that were glued to the saddle of my MST-4. Little bits of the shim were still stuck on after removal, so I smoothed them off with 220 grit sandpaper. I'm not...
Jerryc41 you have definitely been the most prolific NUD post-er over the last two months.
Congrats on this beautiful ukulele! Hopefully, I'll be around when you decide to purge your collection of...
Thank you for the tip, jer. I've been trying to order a replacement from Kanile'a / Islander but have not been successful - I will acknowledge they are very busy with the recent opening of their new...
