**I had one of those slow motion moments when I had a fret rocker in my hand and my clumsy self tripped and I watched it fly out of my hand and hit the bottom of the top of this uke. Luckily the damage was not THAT bad. It could have been WAY worse. But I put it on my shelf and ignored it for about a year. But I am liquidating all the things that were accidentally languishing on my shelf. And part of that is admitting when I did a Boo-boo and passing on my boo-boo ukes to homes where they can be appreciated at a huge discount!
So there is a finish crack on the top. I took a close up picture. It is ONLY in the finish and does not extend into the wood. I went ahead and set it up with nice fluorocarbon strings. And there may be a few little imperfect scratchy areas in the finish, but it is slight and really is nothing you can not see unless you hold the uke in a certain light. So... this uke is $200 off! So my loss is your gain if you dont mind the blemish. If you are the type who can be clumsy like me, then you can get a pretty uke that when you add your own damage you wont mind so much since it is already blemished! Haha!**
This ukulele is stunning! It is a unique Spruce and Cedar top with a BEAUTIFUL abalone "oversized" rosette. Made from premium abalone. Then the back is rosewood and maple. A unique design and a unique ukulele!
But the best part is, it also sounds as good as it looks! This uke is loud and full, and has a great tone a packs a lot of punch! Spruce and Cedar compliment each other and give this uke a nice loud, full, robust sound. They are both big and bold tonewoods. And the rosewood and maple are both punchy full tonewoods classically used for the back and sides that add a lot of robust and rich sound with a lot of attack to the instrument. So it compliments the spruce and cedar super well! So not only does this uke LOOK amazing, it also SOUNDS amazing! You will be very pleased!
