New Uke Day (NUD) aNueNue US3K soprano!

[Eggs_n_Ham]

I thought I was a confirmed tenor player then I realized I was a confirmed concert player. Then on a lark I bought an Ohana sk-25.

Now I'm a soprano player. I hunted this little beast for months, stalking uke sites without success until one morning I thought "I'm going to check TUS- they had it! Boom! Mine.

She just arrived this morning in a thick heavy blue hard case with fuzzy gray fur...she plays like a dream...no less than I expect from aNueNue. Props to TUS! I'm a happy uke player and I'm hoping my uas is cured!

What a lovely soprano. Great looking Koa. Congratulations!

Enjoy your gem.

Wow, that's the best-looking Anuenue I've ever seen! I think that the classic spruce soprano birds are adorable, but this is STELLAR!!!

 

[TerryM]

Congratulations, that's lovely. I've been soprano curious in general and US3K in particular. So, how does it sound?

 

[Cadia]

Congrats! It sounds like you are a confirmed ukulele player, is all. It's lovely. Enjoy!

Thanks Tim!! My little vintage kamaka soprano made me a real fan of koa and soprano; I actually tried to find a new kamaka soprano but with no luck- of course now TUS has one...the "mid grade" koa hits the sweet spot for me for woodsy bling and she sounds like a beautiful well made concert than a bright chirpy soprano- bet she could stand a low g...but I'll stay reentrant with this one!

Thanks Terry! Sound is smooth and pleasurable to the ear; on the edge of quiet, not crashy bright and bangy like my Ohana sk-25! The planetary tuners are amazingly responsive and intonation is spot on. I have to admit I'm a bit of an aNueNue fangirl- I now get why people love the bird series. TUS has a 5k soprano available!

 

[KevinFL]

That's beautiful! I love the wood grain. Enjoy your new uke.

 

[JEngle1122]

ITS SO CUTE! !! !!1!

 

[rreffner]

Oh wow! What a beautiful instrument. Enjoy

 

[Squirrel40]

I would be a Soprano player if I had that one. Thats pretty! Congrats

 

[Teddy]

That is gorgeous congrats

 

[Tin Ear]

That one is a looker ! Bet it will suit you well playing too.

ANueNue makes quality ukes for sure!

...TUS has a 5k soprano available!

I see a 5K tenor but no aNueNue sopranos at all. Maybe sold? Probably out of my range anyway (and I like the swoopy binding treatment on the 3Ks better).

 

[Joyful Uke]

Wow, that’s a lovely looking soprano. Enjoy!

 

[Dohle]

Fabulous. I have the concert version, UC3K, and it's every bit as good as any high-end or custom uke I've played. Congrats.

I also have a US3K and absolutely love it. Her name is Rosebud. Also have her big sister Lady Rose. She is a UC3K.
they are both fantastic ukes. Sometimes I can’t decide which one to play because they both sound so good.

Always nice to know other folks enjoy such an amazing little uke! It's so little! I really love playing it, it ticks every single box for a finely made soprano for me. I considered buying the concert version but I have an amazing Millar cedar/rosewood concert that is equally as well made as the aNueNue - no kidding!
