Crap. Just shoot me now.

Isn't this always the way it happens?

I finally decided on what ukulele to get from Mainland Ukes as my raffle prize: a mango concert. Then I look at their site and see the above picture. The concert mahogany with the slotted headstock.

Dang, it's purty.

When it comes to my serious ukes (the plastics are another matter), I've always said that the sound is the important thing.

But.

Dang, that's cool-looking.

But.

I have no excuse to get it.

BUT!

I just realized that I don't have a mahogany uke in concert size! Mango, yes. Red Cedar, yes. But mahogany?

Awesome.

@Grumpy: Yes, of course, can't wait to meet y'all! And then I can still buy this beauty at the UWC, saving on shipping & tax! Hmm, but I also want a Concert Flea...and... argh there are just too many ukes in this world!
