Yes, Ohana solid spruce tops are my go-to ukes, even though they're more likely to crack in the winter than plywood tops. I lean toward sopranos, as I get more of that characteristic plunkety ukulele sound in that size than in the larger instruments. The larger the ukes get, the more hints of that more sonorous guitar tone I hear, and if I want that, well, I have plenty of guitars lying around.
I have several Ohana Ike’s and find that even the laminate they use has a terrific sound. I have a tenor that has rosewood back and sides and a spruce top that I use most of the time. For the couple hundred dollars it cost, it plays and sound as good as most of the $1k and up that I have played. I highly would recommend any Ohana products. Love them. I get mine at the Uke republic.
Very nice! I love the look of this Ukulele. I particularly love the Rosette and the binding. Think I would change the strings though later on. Although I do love Aquila strings, I do think it may sound better with a change. Thank you for the review Ms B. I love it!
I love my Ohana Uke! One day I would like to get this one. I have a concert pineapple right now and I love the sound! When friends saw it, they thought it looked rather plain, then they heard it! Wow!
I have a SK-21A. I normally prefer the spruce, however this piece of cedar that was to small for any guitar works really nice on this very small sound board. For the concert scale I do prefer the spruce though. I exclusively play melody and shun the chord swatting however.
Very NICE!!!🎸🎸🎸😀. There’s an OHANA’S close to me in Long Beach - I hope they have this model (CK-70M)...Want to Test Play this model🎸🎸🎸. Thanks “Coach” for sharing! EXCELLENT Revfiew✅✅✅
Hey Bernadette! Thank you for all the awesome ukulele videos. I had a quick question and was wondering which you use more often and is a better investment quality wise: This Ohana - Spruce Top -Ukulele OR The Magic Fluke - Tenor - Ukulele. I would like to invest in a great ukulele to record music with and perform live with. Thank you for you time and these lovely videos!!! :)))

You are a Spruce Top of UA-camrs Ms.B. Bright, direct and clear, plus your information is always sound. Been hearing great things about this brand.
I bought their slim bodied acoustic/ electric tenor the same day you were at their headquarters. I love it ! Do more reviews of Ohana ukes please.
This instrument sounds GORGEOUS!

Thank you so very much! Yet another classy and professional review!
Ack!!! I have this Ohana. With a low G. It is a beauty! I do love it’s nice bright sound! Feels great in my hand too!(Leah)
I love my Ohana Uke! One day I would like to get this one. I have a concert pineapple right now and I love the sound! When friends saw it, they thought it looked rather plain, then they heard it! Wow!
Sounds great and it so cool i love it 💛 sadly I can't afford :(
That is one pretty uke! 😍
Cool, see the ukulele model info, yet need Ohana's contact information in the description 😍

Sorry, I'm late with my comments.
That's one gorgeous looking uke. Sounds so nice too
Does anyone know how wide is the fretboard at the 1st fret?
Does it come setup with lowered action and good quality strings? Where is the best place to buy?
Hey Bernadette! Thank you for all the awesome ukulele videos. I had a quick question and was wondering which you use more often and is a better investment quality wise:
This Ohana - Spruce Top -Ukulele
OR
The Magic Fluke - Tenor - Ukulele.

Sounds nice, but who sells it?
Would you recommend rather this one or the Ohana CK-14CL?
Hey! Great video. Could you review the Alvarez RU22 Mahogany Concert ukulele?
🕺✝️✌❤🙋♂️🙂sounds really good
Is that a concert ukulele?
😍
Early! ❤️❤️lysmmm
