Makaio MKC-10 Koa Concert Ukulele - Natural Excellent

For your consideration is a Makaio MKC-10 in excellent like new condition. The MKC translates to Makaio Koa Concert so of course, koa construction and concert size.

This example is one of the earlier first-generation ones. You can tell this a couple of ways. First and foremost, take a look at the top, side and back wood/grain which if you look at the new ones available for sale now- this just blows those away. The other way is the headstock logo, which is a light wood inlay and not the cheap mother of pearl or abalone looking one they're made with now. Lastly, the sticker on the inside. Please note, these don't have serial numbers.

I'm the second owner and bought this a few months ago thinking I wanted to have some fun strumming on a uke but unfortunately, it's just not my thing.

Please look closely at all of the pictures and let me know if you have any questions or want more. Anything that looks like finish issues or other in the pics are just glares or smudges and not actual issues. There are only the slightest signs of this instrument being played on.

It'll come with its original gig-bag which is actually very well build and offers great protection. included, as pictured, is a brand-new pack of D'Addario felt picks and some Ernie Ball "low g" strings.

Presently I have this listed for local pick up only but may change this to shipping later. For anyone interested in purchasing this, I’m happy to make arrangements to meet most anywhere that’s safe, in the Dallas / Fort Worth and surrounding areas.

I have this item for sale on multiple platforms therefore I reserve the right to end this listing at any time at my discretion, without notice! No returns or refunds will be accepted or given!
