For those out there that have an Amahi snail concert ukes could you please compare the neck as far as thickness, roundness, etc to other concert models. Are they easy and comfortable to play? You do not hear much about Snails it seems.
 
My main player for quite some time was a very pretty, pale mahogany Snail concert ukulele. It had a lovely chimey sound, and although my hands are arthritic and not very big, I found the neck very comfortable and easy to play. I would describe the Snail neck as more rounded than flat, somewhat similar (although not identical) to a concert KoAloha. They are hard to come by - I don't know why they are not more popular - but they are a good buy, if you can find one. Personally, I think they are a far better uke than their cousins in the standard Amahi lineup.
