Washburn Comfort Series WU85SWK Solid Koa Top Cutaway Ukulele
OVERVIEW
Classic Washburn shape with the warm and beauty of solid koa for the allure of the Hawaiian island sound.
Washburn has been making ukuleles since 1915, the year a Hawaiian music craze was sweeping the nation. Throughout the '20s and '30s Washburn's ukes were a popular choice for pros and amateurs alike. In the '60s and '70s Tiny Tim, an artist whose name became synonymous with ukulele, chose to play a Washburn. Based on their early models, the WU85SWK pairs a solid koa top and body bound by abalone and maple. The WU75SK also features a bocote bridge and fingerboard, mahogany neck, abalone/maple rosette, dot inlays, gold tuners and a gloss finish.
Case sold separately.
