I am the second owner of this fine ukulele, but it is new to me, and I wanted to take the time to share my first impressions. So far, what stands out to me the most is how light she is and how responsive she is to my caress. She definitely prefers to be played gently, quickly going from sweet to distorted when strummed or picked too vigorously. I will do a more thorough review when I have spent more time with her. Here are some of the aesthetic details:
Concert Body w/16" scale (half way in between traditional concert and tenor sizes)
Claro Walnut back & sides
Port Orford Cedar top
maple binding
custom rosette and faceplate
Macassar Ebony fretboard (not radiused)
Macassar Ebony bridge (string through body)
Gotoh UPT tuners
natural satin finish
