NUD: Aklo Bamboo

I received the Jockomo black pearl fret stickers and just finished applying them. It's ready to go out in public with the black and bamboo motif. The hole punch worked out very well, took a little care to remove the small circles from the backing, but Bill' suggestion of using an X-Acto™ knife really helped. The 2mm and 4mm punches fit perfectly. I also added black ball ends, which makes it very easy to replace the strings.

That's a big improvement. I have my black dots, but I haven't put them on yet. I'm not sure about the nut and saddle. The nut is quite a bit larger than the original, and the original saddle is compensated. Where did you get those black beads?

The Tenor sized one in the Amazon listing had "Designed by Aklot" written on the top by the lower right bout. (Looks hideous.) But not on the cutaway version or the concert (23").

I hope that was dropped on on the ones they currently sell.

.....I wonder if Aklot/Kmise is one of the companies that builds for Kala?

It's still on the old stock of tenors, for sure. But it doesn't look at bad in person as it does on a photo.
