The soprano is my personal favourite size of uke: small but perfectly formed. The neck meets the body at the 12th fret. Built to my own design (but inspired by the old Martin uke), it has power, volume, and a sweet tone, making it the perfect rhythm ukulele.
This is a true classic of ukuleles - a koa soprano. Koa is the traditional Hawaiian material for making ukuleles and this particular piece is incredibly lustrous. This is a really beautiful instrument and is finished in Tru Oil to give a slightly glossy finish. It sounds absolutely terrific, with a sweet tone and a powerful punch when you need it. 12 frets and Gotoh UPT tuners. Aquila strings are shown in the pics and video but I recently tried out some fluorocarbon strings which I think work even better on this one.
It measures roughly 54cm (length), 16cm (widest width) and 5cm (depth).
