    Description

    This is as perfect an example of a vintage consumer uke you will find. Even the bag appears to be brand new. I really wanted to have a playable vintage soprano uke, but unfortunately these are not really very playable "out of the box". I took it to a local luthier that just so happens to be somewhat of an expert on the old Smeck ukes and he performed his magic and made it very playable. It has good intonation and adding the Graph Tech geared tuning pegs made all the difference in the world. Strings are a new set of D'Addarios. Original tuning pegs will be included.
    So, if you want old school, and you want to actually play it, this is as good as it gets. There are NO cracks or defects of any kind.
