I had both of these out today, so thought I'd grab a pic. On left is Martin T1K, with recent UPT tuner mod. On right is early 40's Style 0 soprano. Surprisingly, both have almost equal volume...loud. Tried a bunch of strings on the T1K: Martin, Worth Browns, LW, now finally the Nylguts, which sound great on it, and I usually don't prefer them. Wanted to try them, since Kanilea specs them on their fine koa ukes. They sound full and rich, whereas FC strings did not, at least on this uke. As Baz mentioned in his review, the T1K can sound trebly, almost like a soprano with flouros. Not so with the Nylguts, IMO.
