Collings UC2 Figured Mahogany Concert Ukulele Pre-Owned 2013 ID-10937
Pre Owned 2013 Collings UC2 Figured Mahogany Concert Ukulele
On the first strum, it's clear this is a serious ukulele. This Collings UC2 is built with a gorgeous piece of Figured Mahogany. Mahogany brings killer crispness and focus. In the hands of a true ukulele player, this little one really shines. This UC2 also features a Haircut Peghead, and Tortoise body binding with Black/White purfling.
As with everything that comes out of the Colling shop, lots of homework and research have gone into their line of ukuleles. Despite looking like traditional friction tuner, each of the four tuners are actually geared tuning pegs made by Pegheads. Collings be praised, a ukulele that is easy to tune! The 4:1 gear reduction allows strings to be tuned more easily and accurately than traditional wood pegs (or Caspari-type mechanisms which require screw drivers or special keys).
Tune confidently and securely with the left hand while playing open strings; even during performance! PEGHEDS tuners return the fine-tuning function to pegs. Strings slide more freely over the smooth, wide nut than over the comparatively sharp edge of the bridge, where stress is concentrated and equilibrium of tension on either side is more difficult to achieve.
This Pre Owned 2013 Collings UC2 Figured Mahogany Concert Ukulele is in excellent + condition with no wear to mention. It includes the original hardshell case.
