These are excellent Ponos. Great sound. The cedar warms the tone a bit and gives it plenty of projection. Lovely sustain. Low-G or high, strummed or picked these are great all-around tenors.

You're getting a Pono PC for D price. With a slothead to boot.

What year was this made?

Rayperreault · Feb 20, 2020

I think it was purchased in 2015 from the Ukesite.

Kept in a smoke and pet-free environment? Also, will you ship to the States?

Rayperreault · Feb 20, 2020

Hi I’m currently snowbirding in Arizona so shipping to the US is preferable.

Yes smoke free, pet free.

I have one of these and have to say it is such a quality ukulele. It compares very well with many aspects of a custom Ukulele.

This is a superb price and strongly recommend this as a buy.

Hi OP, I'm very interested. Mind giving a bit more info about "few very small imperfections in the top"? Assuming no cracks, dents. TIA!

Cliff E · Feb 21, 2020

I had that model! The tone was nicer than my very high end ukes.

Rayperreault · Feb 21, 2020

This ukulele is in very nice condition. In order to see the marks you have to tilt the uke at just the right angle, their small. Cedar is a very soft wood and very easy to mark. Nothing major.

Any neck issues? Could you post a sound sample to the thread? Thanks!

Rayperreault · Feb 21, 2020

It plays very well no buzz no neck issues. It sounds lovely.

kookoolele · Feb 21, 2020

Thanks for your responses. Sending PM.

I had that model but with a cutaway too. Gosh I loved that uke, beautiful sound, but alas the truss rod make the neck too thick for me to manage.

This is so tempting! Great uke at a great price!

I see you have a Moore Bettah ... this is in my estimation as nice sounding as my other high end Ukes. I am surprised someone hasn't snapped it up.

Tomthebaptist · Feb 22, 2020

PM sent. Please check

Jayfuzi · Feb 23, 2020

Yes, I love my Moore Bettah! But I also have a Pono ATD that plays and sounds super sweet. Especially with Joel’s UKE logic strings!

Rayperreault · Feb 25, 2020

I'd like to thank everyone for their expressions of interest and kind comments. My Pono has been SOLD.

Congratulations to seller and new owner.
