Location: Phoenix AZ		Up for sale is my COLLINGS UKULELE.

Q1: Why would I sell such an amazing instrument and source of drool?
A1: Because (don't ask ...) I have more than one

Q2: Why would somebody spend this kind of money on a ukulele
A2: There is no logic ... unless of course you want the best













COLLINGS CONCERT UKULELE - Model UC2-K

This is a CONCERT size ukulele and hardshell case

This ukulele is absolutely 100% perfect brand new condition. Not a mark on it and no signs at all it has ever been played. To put it mildly ... the sound will blow off your coconut bra.

Price new was around $2200. and these things don't come up for sale very often.

Location: Phoenix AZ		I had a question about the tuners. These are NOT standard friction tuners. They are GEARED TUNERS called Peg-Heds. One of the coolest inventions you can imagine. It looks just like a standard friction tuner, made of solid ebony. But in fact it's a 4:1 geared self contained planetary tuner. Very stealth and absolutley spot-on accurate with no slippage. These are starting to show up on more and more high end ukuleles

Location: Always beautiful canyon country of Utah		Just curious as to why you would list it cheaper on ebay than on here where your Ovation brethren reside?? Not judging you -- just curious.

Location: Phoenix AZ		I listed it here for almost a month with not even a nibble. So off to ebay it goes. If an OFC member wants it for $1450 they can just get it on ebay.
