B-stock Ohana CK70-A6 6 String Solid Spruce/Mahogany Concert Ukulele
A wonderful 6 sting ukulele here from Ohana. It takes the best parts of multi-course ukuleles and conventional 4 strings and puts them together in one stunning instrument. The CK70-A6 is an all solid wood ukulele with a bigger sound than the average concert. We have a few B-stock models here, which have small cosmetic blemishes but are otherwise excellent, playable instruments.
It's tuned to gG,cC,E, A. The mixture of low and high G (like a 5 string) and inclusion of the high C string gives you all the jangle and chimey chorus of a 6 or 8 string but with a cleaner treble side. You can pick melody with octave bass notes on this.
Best of all, the instrument doesn't suffer at all for being a concert size. 6/8 string concerts are very rare and can feel slightly claustrophobic, but this uke has a tight sound and a pleasent ring to it. Check out our first impressions of it in the video below.
Specification:
Solid spruce top
Solid mahogany back and sides
Ovangkol fingerboard and bridge
39mm nut width
Unique 4/2 headstock design
High G, low G, high C, middle C, E, A tuning (to replace these strings - buy a normal 6 string set and use the low A as your low G)
Well done Ohana, when you get it right - you really get it right.
