Got this Martin T1k here a few months ago from ukeinfused. Got it to be my reentrant tenor, but am finding that I like low-G on tenors better, and already have another tenor for that. Nice grain, with a loud, woody koa tone. Gotoh UPTLs installed, looks cool, they work great too. Top holes from old Grover tuners filled with matching Minwax pencil, the bottom holes are partially covered by the UPTL housing, not easily visible. Plays great, action 2.5 mm at 12th fret. Strap pins installed at bottom and at side of heel. New Aquila Nylguts installed, they really do sound great on koa tenors, IMHO. No scratches or dings that I can see on the uke, real nice shape. although the front hex nuts on the tuners have a bit of wrench wear if you look close. A great sounding and looking Martin koa tenor, all with no tuner ears sticking out the sides of the headstock, an $80.00 upgrade. Case shown not included, the original light blue Martin gigbag will be included.
