Clearance reason
The deal is there is uneven frets on fret 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, and 16. Who knows what went down while this was being made, but the truth is it plays perfectly fine and you can still get your fingers between those frets!
I have tried my best to get photos of this but it is very hard to tell without looking at it in person. For this reason we are heavily discounting a perfectly playable uke.
Joel's review
Bondi brings a spotlight to an underused tone wood in the Tiger Oak Ukulele Series. Oak is a beautiful wood with a rich tone that?s similar to mahogany, but a bit brighter. Your eyes are first drawn to the unique striping on the top, back and sides. This is perfectly contrasted with a dark Ebony fretboard and bridge.
Everything is capped off with Caesar Herringbone binding and rosette, and a pearl inlayed logo on the headstock. Each ukulele comes equipped with Silk Chrome tuning machines that give you precise tuning control. The tuning machines are closed back which keeps the gears oiled and the dust out.
All of the ukuleles in this series have a natural matte finish that makes the neck fast and smooth to play. The Tiger Oak Series brings a balance of stunning looks, brilliant tone, and something a little bit different for the discerning player.
