Hi guys!
Just wanted to jump in here. This is one of my favorite ukes we've released, we're very excited about these - we just finished picking out the Koa and Mango wood for the next batch last week, it looks great!
This uke is made in the USA, not overseas, and does not use the same piezo that we use over there. We use Fishman everything in our China, Indonesia, and Taiwan factories. I'll follow up with a link to the exact model for the Mak's and Rabbit Island (Manana... named after our favorite weekend body surfing spot and the island directly off the bay from it), I remember the brand but the model # escapes me at the moment and I have no problem disclosing information on it or how we install it, if anyone has any further questions.
The ukes have shipped to our customers, you can preorder one on our site or from Elderly (it says it'll be out in May there, but they will have them next week):

If anyone still has questions or wants more information, you're always welcome to PM me! Further, anyone interested in a review piece is welcome to get in touch and I will send you one to try out. For anyone skeptical of it's quality, this might be a great way to answer your questions.
Here's a quick video I made that talks about the uke and has a quick sample through a Laney A-1 Acoustic Amp:
