Custom KoAloha Tenor Ukulele
A rare Custom KoAloha Tenor Ukulele (Black Label) in exceptional original condition. This one was gently played and remains in wonderful original condition. Redwood top with cocobolo sides and Hawaiian Koa back with cocobolo center wedge and maple wood pinstriping. Curly maple top and back binding with bound fretboard for smooth ease of play. The neck is made of Hawaiian Koa and the fretboard and bridge are made of cocobolo. Professional grover machine geared tuners.
I am amazed at the tones this instrument produces. Absolutely wonderful and almost symphonic in a sense. Very rich chocolatey tones with crisp highs. Tremendous projection and sustain and I’ve got to say, one of the best ukes I’ve ever played!
There are two small hairlines on the soundboard that extend from the left and right side of the fretboard to the soundhole. They were both professionally repaired by technicians at KoAloha and were braced, sanded and glued for repair. The finish was then applied and is a pore-less finish. There are no scratches on this beauty since the finish has been newly applied. Aside from that there is quite a bit of fingerboard play but it is really only surface in nature.
