1930s Martin Style 5 HIGHLY FIGURED Hawaiian Koa Soprano Ukulele 5K Uke
The undisputed KING of ukuleles! This stunning Hawaiian Koa early 1930s Martin soprano ukulele is all original and is a very nice example that sounds and looks amazing. Martin saved its absolute best flamed Hawaiian Koa wood for the 5K. The wood is complimented throughout with stunning pearl binding. It is on par with their best guitars, such as the D-45 in both materials and craftsmanship. A true professional level ukulele if there ever was one. It's set up perfectly, and it's very fun to play both rhythm and fingerstyle.
Overall Length: 20 3/4 in. (52.7 cm.)
Lower Bout: 6 1/4 in. (15.9 cm.)
Body Depth: 2 5/16 in. (5.9 cm.)
Scale length: 13 5/8 in. (346 mm.).
Nut Width: 1 3/8 in. (35 mm.).
It has some very minor age-appropriate marks here and there but is overall extremely well preserved. We'd venture a guess that it is among the most well preserved 5Ks in existence! It plays in tune well, sounds super sweet, and projects well. An original Martin purple-lined case is included, which may predate the ukulele by a few years.
