KoAloha Opio KCO-10S Concert Ukulele All Solid Wood Spruce Top with gigbag no.1

£599.00 £499.17

We're really impressed with the new KoAloha concert ukulele models. They've been very clever and taken their tried and tested uke designs and made them in spruce and acacia. Combined with their fantastic factory in Thailand and you get a winning uke at fantastic value for money.

Most of the design features, the DNA if you will, that make KoAloha what they are are found here: the 5 pointed crown headstock, the slinky feeling neck, the Musubi soundhole shape, the clever internal unit-bracing, the attention to detail, and the sheer flamboyance of the sound. In fact, the sound is very, very similar to the koa models that KoAloha are so famous for. The build quality is just as tight, and feel in the hand just as good.

Something worth noting about these spruce Opios as well is the way in which they begin to wear with play. Customers that have visited the shop recently with earlier Opios have had ukuleles with deliciously scratched tops that look like they have been round the world several times over in just a couple of years. Spruce is a soft wood and the satin finish does leave it prone to a bit of a battering from your fingernails. Perhaps somebody who likes to keep their instrument shiny and new should invest in a scratchplate early on.

This KoAloha concert ukulele has a solid spruce top and is an absolute stormer. Fuller and bassier than the all acacia model, it has a huge dynamic range and when strummed possibly the most luscious and gorgeous sound with all the volume and sustain you could wish for.

Pictures show actual instrument. This one has some lovely darker grain features, which are not patches of damage but the natural character of the Spruce top.
