    I found this video very helpful, instructive, and fun--thank you guys! It validated my recent purchase of the acacia tenor model from your store, as I find it a nice balance between warm and bright, and the overall tone is lush to my ears. Can't wait to receive it!

    Spruce top: loud, clarity, bright (brash!), shorter sustain. Cedar: warmer than spruce, good volume, pleasing balanced tone and sustain. Mahogany: traditional, warm, more sustain. Mango and Acacia, close, somewhere between spruce and mahogany. My preference is Mango. Amazing how different the same uke can sound when played by different musicians. Just one man's opinion!

      I think your right, I also think Corey is playing nails and Tobias playing with flesh. So far I’m not a big fan of spruce brightness or mahogany “warmth” but I love cedar, and I think I’d love mango since I like that well rounded sound and it sounds like it falls in that middle spectrum.

      @@griffithsharp I agree about spruce tops. I have (a modest) spruce top/mahog body Kala Concert and have never "warmed up" to it's excessively bright attack and tone for solo playing. To it's credit, in a group it projects well.

      @@Prajnana Yea but I feel that brightness or “brilliance” can come through or sound very professional in a recording with other instruments. Except I have a baritone spruce top and it has that body for bass to balance. I think I can deal with brightness like with spruce but one thing I can’t stand when mixing a sound is when my ears get hit with that sharp punchyness, like those sharp mids can be harsh. In a group I could see that punch coming through but I enjoy the even type sound as recording is my primary concern and not really soloing. That concert kala is probably great for dynamic finger style playing.

    I love this kind of videos !! Tonewoods do have their own characteristics, but there is also a part of subjectivity : the color of the wood, the touch, the reputation, the expectations, etc. influence our sound perception. Its very interesting how you can trick someone (even a professional), lol

    That is the main reason for the U.A.S (Ukulele Acquisition Syndrome)... you think you have the Uke you want then you hear another uke made of a different tonewood and before you know it, you have 12 ukes, 🤣🤣🤣
    My UAS journey started with Mahogany then a Mango then a Maple now I’m eyeing for a Koa! Things don’t stop there, you always had to try out a different combination of strings! 🤣🤣🤣
    Not to mention ukes that you would say you’d want for travel!!! 🤣🤣🤣

    To my ear, the mango fit best with Corey's style, and the spruce-topped acacia fit best with Tobias's style.
