here is mine acquired about a month or so back:

its not curly koa, but it will knock your socks off in person. Then when you put them back on and play it, it will knock'm off again. Its really that good.
Feels like air, at 1.2 lbs.
I have Worth CH strings on her now, have a set of PhD low G's to try out soon.
Has the new satin finish. "tone sand" inlay, ebony fretboard and headstock. Nothing is gloss, it looks very organic and natural. Smells great. Low buzz free action.
drop in bone saddle with a slight backward tilt(haven't measured it but i'm thinking 3 or 5 degrees). Santa Cruz guitar company does that backward tilt for a very specific reason-i need to contact Kanilea to ask them, but i'm sure its the same principle.
Love this Uke. It was not a special order. Sylvan Music in Santa Cruz, Ca had it(they may have ordered it special i don't know). The day i saw it my plan started. Took me a couple weeks to pay it off but she's home now.
