- #1105 Master Grade Chocolate Heart Myrtle Super Soprano Classic
" You have mastered the art of ukulele creation. It is a technically perfect living and breathing work of art! The quality of tone is beyond anything I've ever heard. It is rich and velvety, with a crystal clear harp-like shimmer and seemingly endless sustain. Perfect intonation up the neck. Even the simplest of passages sound surreal. By the way, I can't even play my two other ukuleles; they are going on eBay tonight. They simply pale in comparison in every aspect you can judge a ukulele by."
