Not sure how useful it will be, but you might try a little graphite on each side. You can get it powdered, or take some sandpaper to a carpenter’s pencil to make a smal pile. Messy, but will come off...

Isn’t that the bare minimum for UU membership? Gerald, you’re lucky you managed to get in with just one.
The good thing about putting all that work into a plastic uke is you learn a lot in a low-risk environment. And you are unlikely to ever encounter another uke that bad, so it’s like a master class....
Mine has the gloss finish as well. It’s a 1KOA-CG (concert gloss). But mine is from 2016, which may explain it.
Your novice ears are valid. I think it’s useful to regard how ukuleles sound as different rather than better or worse. Though some sound better or worse to me. I’ve heard laminates that I like a lot....
That’s a fantastic deal. I have a 1KOA concert that looks identical (go figure) and it’s exceptional.
Ugh, Bill ;)
Your uke looks nice in it. Great idea.
I know you meant no harm, and neither do I. The term “spaz” as well as any derivatives of that term is highly offensive to those with CP, MS, or other spastic conditions. Along the lines of other...
Cool! She’s so good.
Please don’t blame the soprano scale for how the Waterman sounds and plays. I hope you like it, though.
That is so cool. You just want to touch it.
Crazy as this may sound, Kmise makes a model that comes in all sizes, including, recently, a 6 string guitar or guilele, and is made of a very good-sounding laminate. You’ll be able to get any size...

Just thought I’d go OT for good. We’ve covered the original topic quite well.
Thanks, Jim. Nice comparisons.
Wow, these must have changed a lot. I had one that was hands down the worst uke I’ve ever owned. I wouldn’t even give it away for fear it would frighten people from trying to play ukulele. The neck...
I would like to see the videos, when you have time.
Thanks, that's good to know.

I wonder if they used the neck measurements from a tenor guitar. Or thought they might be marketing to tenor guitar players.
I think there must be a market for both a wider and a narrower neck....
Let's get this sold! Any offers?

I have a multiuke listed on UU right now. Solid koa. Check it out! It belongs to a friend and I'm selling it for her. If you have any questions, ask away.

They are bound to be much better than the 2s and cheaper than the UPTs. You may be happy with them. I find the Gotoh UPTs only nominally easier to use than the high-end Gotoh friction tuners and...
That’s a really good point. I think it’s possible that it’s too late to get that horse back in the barn, but I’ll personally try to be more accurate from here on out. It will probably do no more than...
Oh, that’s wonderful. A Kala AK97.
