Sometimes I hear the opinion that a particular K brand is better than the others at making a particular size. So one excels at sopranos. Another at making concerts. And another makes better tenors.
For example, I've heard before the opinion that Kanile'a makes better tenors. KoAloha shines with concerts. And Kamaka's standard size is, well, the gold standard.
But that's just one example. Does anybody else have them ranked depending on the size? I'm curious if there's some general consensus.
I know some just think one is better than the rest regardless of size. And others (maybe the majority) think there's no real winner, and that the differences are just a matter of preference. But setting aside questions of subjectivity vs. objectivity, I'm wondering if there are common opinions in matching K brands to uke sizes.
I haven't played all three sizes by all the K brands, so I can't say.
