Not that I care about the archtop, but there's a spalted Koa that will be gone if it's still there when I get back from Jacksonville on a wood buying mission for the guitar projects this winter. |

Location: Rego Park, NY, | The uke that I got from Dave was from an early run of that model that was made slightly deeper.I contacted Kala's customer service because the uke developed cracks near the F holes. The customer service rep was very helpful due to the fact that I was not the original owner. He sent me a new one. It was also an adventure locating a hard case due to the depth.
I am very happy with it. |
