Wonderful sounding Kumalae-style concert-scale soprano built by luthier extraordinaire, Brad Donaldson. Highly figured koa back/sides with 40 yr. Engelmann spruce top. No issues—perfectly set up with low action just above 2mm at the 12th fret. Immaculately & lightly built to be responsive, focused and loud. Beautiful tone woods and workmanship details both inside and out. The koa is stunning. In good condition and was custom ordered and built last year. It’s a fantastic mezzo soprano, but I am needing to fund some repairs on two vintage instruments received recently.
