USED KAMAKA / SOPRANO UKULELE (Vintage/Gold Label/circa late 1960s) Kamaka Soprano Ukulele [08]
Founded in 1916, Kamaka Ukulele of Hawaii is still known today as one of the most popular ukulele brands.
This instrument dates from the late 1960s, during the āMatte Gold Labelā era.
Both the body and neck are made of Hawaiian koa. (The fingerboard and bridge are believed to be rosewood.)
It has a nut width of approximately 36 mm, a scale length of approximately 345 mm, a 12th-fret joint, and a total of 12 frets.
* Only the fingerboard has a glossy finish; it appears to have been over-lacquered.
* The frets appear to have been replaced at some point.
There was peeling on the back of the body, which has been repaired and re-glued at our workshop.
Several cracks and repair marks are visible on the back of the body near the first string.
The body has weather checking overall, but since it is not glossy, it is not particularly noticeable.
The back of the neck has developed a sheen from playing. There are also areas on the body where a sheen has developed.
Overall, there are fine dents, scuffs, and scratches visible throughout.
Although there are signs of aging, repair marks, and general wear, playability is good.
It produces a crisp, cool sound that resonates pleasantly, and the clear projection unique to vintage instruments is excellent!
