Unique Limited Edition Concert Ukulele: CK-450SMP
Ohana is excited to announce the arrival of a very special Limited Edition, the CK-450SMP. Featuring solid Spalted Maple, generous abalone inlay, and a unique slotted headstock, this concert scale instrument is a celebration of some of the most luxurious raw materials available.
Spalted Maple is prized for the unique graining patterns included in the wood. This patterning is created by some funky little fungi eating away the wood. Depending on the species of fungi that is present, the figuring can range from white to near black. Some folks are even trying their hand at spalting their own specimens for use in various projects.
The process of creating these wonderful patterns does create a bit of an issue— raw material that retains enough strength and integrity for a solid build is incredibly rare. Only about 1 in 100 sets of Spalted Maple are stable enough to create our CK-450SMP. At Ohana, we hand pick these sets, making each instrument a true labor of love.
