Fastest I ever bought a uke. I had 5 or ten minutes to spare at an NAGT Eastern Section Meeting in Maryland while people were gathering to eat at a restaurant there when I decided I could run a block or two down the street to a music shop prominently displaying a UKULELE sign. We had passed it multiple times traveling from the hotel to the meeting. I rushed through the door and saw this Cordoba 24C spalted maple with a cedar top Uke and bought it before the guy at the store said hello. I had seen this new model in Ukulele Magazine and instantly fell in love with the wood. It’s the only ukulele I can think of that I may prefer the back to the front. When I got back to the restaurant everyone was seated and I proudly displayed my latest catch.
