Safe to say you liked this one then Baz! Am I right I thinking the 7 pointed crown headstock is a nod to the owner's Christian faith? I'm sure I read that somewhere but if I'm wrong I'm also sure there'll be at least 4 people along shortly to tell me off... regardless of its origins, it does look great.

Who cares whether the headstock has seven points, or three, or is rounded, or square, it's just decoration.....
If you don't like it/them, you could always file/sand them down. These are really good ukes, why denigrate them over something so petty.
I don't care if the owner of the brand is christian or muslim, I'm buying his product - I'm not buying into his religion.
Sorry, not at you in particular - but I've read it several times within these forums, that people wouldn't buy KoAloha because they thought the owner was pushing his religion via the headstock shape - It's ridiculous.

Keith, can you point to where in this thread someone has denigrated the ukes? I was genuinely taken aback by your comment as this has all been pretty reasonable, interested discussion I thought. I definitely shouldn't have asked the question, though, didn't think about how inflammatory mentioning religion could be. Sorry Baz, the focus should be on the wonderful uke and your epic enjoyment of it!
How does it compare to the spruce topped Opio you reviewed a while back? I would probably go for that one as I love cedar and spruce tops.
This one! The Moonbirds are amazing, but this just feels more, kinda 'right'
