Pictures show the exact ukulele available here. Quarter Sawn Solid Mahogany Wood -satin finish
Solid Mahogany top, back, and sides. Rosewood faceplate, fingerboard and bridge. Rope marquetry rosette, pearl logo and position dots. Bone nut and saddle. Satin finish.
Mahogany wood was used on almost all of the soprano Martin ukuleles. It has a classic tone that the ukulele became famous for. The MS model is one of the best sopranos on the market. Take a listen to this sound sample with Mika.
This Pono soprano is all solid woods, bone nut and saddle, and very high quality tuning keys. The sound is so open and warm that it competes in tone with high-end sopranos! The feel is just right. You can dig in for dynamics and it won't "crap out" like less expensive sopranos. With more attack it gets louder and more full! If you want a high quality, built to last a lifetime, soprano ukulele, - The Pono MS is for you! It has depth and character only a solid wood, professionally made ukulele can have.
Pono's production standards are more exacting than your typical ukulele company. They are dedicated to making the highest quality ukulele you can find and this one is a fantastic value on a wonderful soprano ukulele.

The Sating Mahogany is STELLAR for its price 0 people found this helpfulI drove out to the store on a rainy Friday afternoon, after doing extensive online research. I was toying with either an Islander (which is an excellent ukulele) or a Pono. Aaron was awesome in the store, just like he is on the videos! He has a huge knowledge base of the "eye candy" musical instruments in the store. He was very informative and a pure delight to deal with! I wanted to purchase a fine upgrade for my son's current soprano, without spending too much...and all I have to say after looking at all the other brands, and after many demonstrations and close inspection...the Pono Instruments they had in the store were it! I was sold! There is not a better instrument that I have looked at or found for its price and craftsmanship than a Pono. I chose the satin as they only had a deluxe with a pick-up which my son did not need or I would have bought one of those. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A REASONABLY PRICED HIGH QUALITY BEGINNER/EXPERT INSTRUMENT...LOOK NOWHERE ELSE! THE PONO SATIN MAHOGANY IS IT! THE SERVICE AT THE STORE WAS AWESOME!
