Highly unusual, but a lot of fun!

Edit: Just had a look on the World of Ukes site and was surprised to see that the nylon strung version costs another £40. Possibly my unfamiliarity with steel-strung instruments, but I had expected them to be the same price.
Ah, righto. Thanks for the info.The MSRP is the same on both models. So I'd ask the retailer why they are charging more. Maybe they're including a gig bag or something.
Good review as always Baz. Is it better than the steel string Risa (kidney bean or Les Paul) though since it’s in the same price ballpark.
That fretboard does look like a rather pale and uneven bit of rosewood, though. Pity, considering how the rest of the instrument is finished.
So does the steel stringed uke have a piezo pickup installed? I see no magnetic pickup.
If so this is a very strange beast indeed.
