Hey all,
This might be a dumb question but do solid top and laminate back/sides ukuleles open up after time?
I have a couple solid ukes (Kamaka and Pono) and there opened up (breaking in) beautifully after some time. Reason I'm asking is that I recently got a Kala KA-ZTP-CTG (HMS Ziricote exclusive) with a solid cedar top and laminate ziricote back and sides. Thing is beautiful and is pretty loud. Wanted to get an relatively inexpensive uke to leave in the office and for traveling.
I looked on the forum and didn't see anything about solid tops with laminate sides. Just about solid vs laminate.
Just thought I would ask.
