Hi everyone,
I'm listing this lovely custom Da Silva soprano ukulele. It's an absolute stunner. I recently got it from fellow UU member Janeray1940.
You can see the original listing here:
http://forum.ukuleleunderground.com/showthread.php?97787-checking-interest-DaSilva-291-mahogany-19-fret-soprano&highlight=janeray+fret+soprano
I'm only selling as I've gone down a similar route of falling in love with the koa concert sound. I was lucky enough to get an HF2D+ from HMS recently and I've utterly fallen in love with the Kamaka sound and would love to get either a Kamaka soprano or tenor. Janeray was superb to deal with and I was very happy with this uke.
It's a gorgeous ukulele with amazing note clarity. It also has the best intonation of any ukulele I've had and unusually for a soprano has 19 playable frets! Nice low action and plays like butter.
The specs:
13.75" scale length
Honduras mahogany top, back, sides and neck
Ebony fretboard
19 frets
Peghed tuners
Polyester gloss finish
It is currently strung with Worth BLs for a nice warm tone. It is in great condition with gorgeous mirror gloss and just a few minimal signs of wear to the neck.
I am not looking to make any more than I bought it for and will take anywhere around $800 plus shipping. I will post worldwide from the UK and will do a deal (reduce the price a bit) to help anyone wanting it in the States.
Comes with a lovely hard case.
Would also be interested in trades for a Kamaka soprano or tenor.
Many thanks, as always.
Matt
