Hi, folks.
I love my Ohana SK-75G; solid spruce top, solid flame maple back and sides, etc.
Except for the dead B-flat tone on the A string. Several tones on the E string are quite dead, as well.
But it's that B-flat on the A string that irks me! It just has a decided "thunk" to the sound, with no sustain. Everything on up from that point rings and sustains well!
It's not so much an obvious issue when strumming - but Oh so Obvious when fingerpicking!
My technique is not an issue.
The set up is great! (Mim)
Worth Clear strings. (Great customer service from Mim).
I'm really curious about this: Has anyone else who owns this model experienced the same?
Advice?
Or could this just be an Ohana soprano 'build" issue? I ask because my Ohana solid zebrawood SK-25Z has similar issues - but nowhere near like the SK75G.
Thanks!
