Kevita Concert- Styled after the Roy Smeck Vita Ukulele, this mandolin-shaped ukulele has a richer and fuller tone than its size suggests. Unlike the Vita uke, which used two seal-shaped cutouts as soundholes, I borrow the D-shaped soundhole from my Gypsy style ukulele. Includes large choice of in-stock woods. Plastic binding on top and soundhole, There is typically no binding on the back of this ukulele, but it could be implemented if wished. Spanish cedar neck, Tusq® nut and compensated saddle, rosewood or ebony fingerboard and bridge, dot inlays on fingerboard. The original Vita uke was considered a soprano ukulele, but I offer it as a concert or tenor (same body on both). Includes case or gig bag.
