Key Features

This is a high-quality, vintage soprano ukulele crafted by Loprinzi, a renowned handmade instrument maker founded in 1972 by Argustino Loprinzi in New Jersey. Now based in California, Loprinzi's instruments are highly valued, especially during the double-name label period when Argustino collaborated with his daughter Donna, who now leads the workshop following Argustino's retirement. This ukulele features a beautifully figured solid core wood body with stunning flame patterns that change with viewing angles, complemented by a mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard. The rosette and top purfling are decorated with elegant abalone shell inlays, adding a luxurious touch.

Key features include:

• Nut width: approximately 34.5mm
• Scale length: approximately 347mm
• Original bone nut and saddle
• Overall excellent condition with minimal signs of use despite being around 20 years old
• Slight discoloration on the body top's 4th string side binding due to interior case dye transfer
• No significant dents or scratches; lacquer shows natural aging but remains intact
• Frets are unworn, and string height is set for easy playability
• Rich, articulate sound with good volume and stable pitch, suitable for both ensemble and solo performances
• Comes with a lightweight semi-hard case with urethane foam interior

This rare, well-maintained instrument offers exceptional sound quality and craftsmanship, making it a valuable addition for collectors or serious players. Due to limited domestic distribution, it is seldom available on the market.
