If you would like them emailed to you, or want to see a particular detail etc, feel free to ask; I’m not terribly handy with things like that, but I can usually figure it out.
I am selling this Opio on behalf of a friend of mine.
It has been living safely packaged in my guest room for a while now, humidity & temperature controlled.
It was purchased from Andreas at “Gute Ukulele” around two years ago; for most of that time it has been in storage, only been taken out of the gig bag to be played twice.
It is a concert size, in the Sapele model; a wood that is very close in tone, feel and look to mahogany.
Koaloha only made this model for a short while, before they switched to acacia.
The finish is a beautiful, pore-filled satin.
It has a build date of September 2015.
The tone is, of course, incredible; full, well-rounded, loud, with sustain for aaaaaaaaages.
To my ears it does sound like mahogany, with that little bit of extra that Koaloha tends to have.
Andreas hand-picked this one out of the 7 or 8 he had in stock at the time; he said it was ‘even better than the others’, which is saying something!
I would be very tempted to buy it myself, if I didn’t already have the exact same model. ;-)
Honestly though, the tone on this one is even better than on mine (but mine has a strap button, and battle scars, and sentimental value!).
Price is 270 Euro; payable through bank transfer, or Paypal (in that case, please add 4 Euro to cover pp costs).
For 20 euros, I can add the Boston bag, only used for storage, which is a perfect fit for this smallish concert.
Insured shipping (for a value of up to 500 euro) with Track & Trace within the EU is 24,50 Euro.
Edit; for shipping outside of the EU, please contact me for shipping costs.
If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to ask!
Thank you for looking.
