Cascade Series

 

" This sycamore soprano is fantastic...just what I was hoping for! I can feel the time, love and energy that you've all put into this ukulele. This is the 4th Mya Moe that I've played and like the others, the setup and playability are unsurpassed, making it the uke I grab first when I play. "

- David M.
