USED Pono ACD-E All Solid Acacia Deluxe Concert Electro Ukulele

£400.00 £400.00
A great bargain to be had here for someone looking for a professional giggable Concert Ukulele without breaking into the upper echelons of the high end prices. The condition of this ukulele is very good to excellent with a couple of signs of light play but actually it looks more like an ex display instrument than a preowned one... Comes with the fishman passive undersaddle pickup too - perfect!
Beautifully well made and finished all solid acacia concert ukulele with a gloss finish. The gloss finish hardens the wood, making the sound a little more immediate and crisper than the satin model, the AC. To our ears, the gloss deluxe version has the more pretty, chiming sound of the two, and if you want greater note separation whilst strumming chords, and greater sustain up the neck then this model is worth the little extra.

Acacia is very much like Koa tonally, with a sound brighter than Mahogany. Ebony and bone fixtures and fittings help to maximise the volume and sustain, especially noticeable when playing in positions up the neck. All in all a very classy instrument suitable for many different styles.

About the Pono line: The “Pono” line is made by Ko’olau one of the oldest and most traditional Hawaiian ukulele manufacturers. Ko’olau’s goal throughout the years has been to provide the highest quality stringed instruments available with a high standard of craftsmanship. And besides methods of construction to optimize tone and volume, they stress the importance of cosmetic beauty. It is of interest to note that only the finest grades of quartersawn hardwoods, such as Acacia, Mahogany, Rosewood, and Ebony are selected for Pono instruments. However, only 20% pass the stringent requirements of density, grain patterns, flexibility, and cosmetic aesthetics. This is virtually unknown, especially in the Asian import market. We are proud of the fact that all of the Pono instruments are made of solid woods.
