Hi gang,
Just received my \"Kala Curly Mango Soprano\" from RISA (Rigk und Roll\'s place). I also got the pick-up installed.
I\'m really impressed since I\'m mainly a PONO soprano man. It\'s way better than the Mainland Red Cedar Uke I bought a week or two ago here in Canada in Ottawa. I should have waited and saved \"mein Geld\". Vnm! Anyway, the KALA was a very sweet surprise to my ears and fingers.
Notes: Intonation is almost perfect; white gut strings sound great (usually I hate them en masse!); and the playing action is great. I only wish it had 14 frets. I don\'t need 12... only 14! hehe I\'m glad that the tuners \"HAVE EARS\" as Doctor Dick describes them. Great purchase!
I will record for Youtube this weekend my song about the girl who died \"ghost hunting at the University of Toronto\" last Fall! http://www.thestar.com/News/GTA/article/693495
It\'s an original song called \"Raise a Toast to this Ghost.\" The German version could be \"Raise a PROST to this ghost!\" hehe

Tschüs!
Spottdrossel
Welcome to UKES WITH EARS !
Zitat von: doctor dickWelcome to UKES WITH EARS !
I think we should call the other kind \"Plain Ukulele\". Or short, PUKE :twisted:
\"Uns Uwe\" (Ukes with ears) is way better!
@doctor dick: You came up with the best expression! hehe Funny, since the KALA soprano gold \"ears\" are quite big! 1.5 x the PONO silvery ones! The real question is now à la Pinocchio... if a ukulele player tells a lie or plays a wrong note, will the EARS on his uke grow?! hehe
@WS64: re: \"Puke\" hehehe...
Spottdrossel mit Ohren
As a doctor (sort of) I know that the ears of a uke, if the player tells a lie, will shrink because he or she doesn\'t want to hear it !
Oh boy I saw the ears of all my ukes suddenly shrink to........................... pukes ! :mrgreen:
