This is a gorgeous Spanky concert banjo uke. The pot, neck, and resonator are Texas mesquite, and the fretboard is ebony. The resonator features an inlaid rose made of holly. The tuners are Pegheds for easier tuning, and the top is fyberskin. The Spanky logo is inlaid on the head in a...

FS: Honu Rope Series Concert Ukulele - updated I'm selling this ukulele to thin my collection. I bought this instrument from MGM a couple of years ago, and have enjoyed playing it alot. It was somewhat quiet when it was strung with Aquila strings. I restrung it with Worth Browns and that...

I'm selling this ukulele to thin my collection. (I'm also selling a Big Island Honu Concert on another post.) This KoAloha is a great instrument with a full, rich sound, but I never play it anymore;I spend most of my time playing my Pineapple Sunday or KoAloha Soprano. I am asking $550...

I am watching last night's Hawai'i 5-0 on the DVR, and there is a kid sitting on the beach playing a KoAloha uke about half-way through the episode.

Hey, all you Okie uke-sters! Are any of you up to a meetup some Saturday afternoon in October, say either in OKC or Tulsa?

Hey, Okies! Veep is hosting a ukulele get-together on the evening of Tuesday, Sep 7. It's about a 2.5 hour drive for me, but I'm hoping to make it if some other folks are planning to be there. Anyone from the OKC area or elsewhere planning on going?

I just got back to my hotel room after the concert that ended the third and final day of the Lone Star Uke Fest in Dallas, TX. Kudos to organizers Noel Tardy and Mark Levine and their Dallas Ukulele Headquarters (DUH) colleagues for putting on a great festival! Performers & workshop teachers...

I just got back to my hotel room from the third and final day of the Lone Star Uke Fest. And I bought yet another uke. So, I'd like to sell my Kala Solid Acacia soprano uke to help pay for the new one. I purchased the Kala Acacia in August, 2009 for $270, and it is in excellent condition. It...

I just finished another great day at the 2nd Lone Star Uke Fest, and I purchased a Spanky banjo uke. Below are some pics. The neck, pot, and resonator are made of mesquite, and the rose inlay is holly. Not only is it beautiful, but it is heavy and loud. If you like banjo ukes, this one is...

This is a concert banjo uke from Waverly Street Ukuleles. It is in excellent condition and has a nice, broad fingerboard; the neck is chestnut and the fingerboard is rosewood. I just purchased a Spanky banjo uke, so that's why I'm selling this one. I purchased this instrument new in June...

A few months ago, I bought a Pineapple Sunday, but noticed a little buzz after a while. I contacted Brian at KoAloha, and he suggested I send it back for them to look at. It turned out that it had a twist in its neck. Thanks to their "Better than the Weather" warranty, they offered to build...

I want to relate a story... A couple of months ago I purchased a new Pineapple Sunday from MGM. I noticed within a short period of time that it was 'buzzy' at times. I contacted Brian at KoAloha to see if there was a simple solution; Brian suggested that I send the PS back to them (at their...

We've been snowed in here in Oklahoma, so I have spent more time playing my ukes and looking at MGM's site. Conclusion: cabin fever contributes to UAS. Yesterday I ordered a KoAloha super concert (with crown bridge) from MGM, and I'm having him string this one low-G. It will be a good...

On Saturday, I got a postcard from OKC Music & Sound in Oklahoma City that stated the next meeting of area ukers will be on Tuesday, Dec 1, 7:00 - 9:00 pm at the store. Robin asks those who will attend to RSVP at 405-842-0303.

During the Marshall University football game this weekend, I saw a promotional spot featuring a ukulele playing student, Juston Donadieu. It turns out that there are several different endings to the commercial, and I've now seen four: beatbox music , Matthew McConaughey, cheerleaders, and a...

I recently changed out the KoAloha clear strings that came on my Pineapple Sunday for a set of Fremont Black Lines. I like the sound of the new strings better, as they have settled in. The sound of the Fremonts is more "warm" I feel. Here is a sound sample of the clear strings, and here is a...

Anyone tried this combination, yet? I've seen some posts about Blacklines on other KoAloha ukuleles.

I recently purchased a Pineapple Sunday, and I'm interested to find out from other PS owners what their favorite strings are for this uke, and why. My PS came with clear flourocarbon strings, but I see that the PS pictured on the KoAloha PS page looks like it has Worth Brown strings. Your...

I just received a Pineapple Sunday from MGM today! Here are a couple of pics (from MGM...I haven't stopped playing it long enough to take my own pics). It looks and sounds awesome. It is a "factory special" (a.k.a., factory second), but the only thing I can find wrong with it is that the 12th...
