I prefer concert scale, but MGM had a deal that made me take a walk on the wild side, and I picked up a Koaloha standard soprano. Part of my problem is that I'd sold the pikkake model soprano I had as my first uke, and during my visitations with it at local uke meetings, I found I wasn't over it.
The standard model is more to my liking. The neck is more rounded and comfortable to play, and that right there is a huge plus. The gloss finish is gorgeous, but it's not too heavy, which is nice. And of course the tuners. Much nice than the cotton-filled monstrosities on my first Koaloha.
I THINK the strings are Worth clears. Perhaps MGM can clarify that.
So I was going to start another "Got a new uke!" thread, but then I thought this might be a nice time to start another soprano pride thread instead. We've talked about our sopranos, and now it's time to post some pics!
Here's mine, to get this party started. I was just marveling earlier this evening with how much fun I was getting from 12 frets.
Fresh from the Koaloha bakery!
And some headstock pride!
Now I've shown you mine, you show me yours.
