Makes me wish I had more money years ago when I was in Hawaii and would have been able to buy the real ukulele of koa with abalone inlay. They had one the size he's playing, and a smaller one as well. Both out of my price range. All ukuleles were either cheap-o toy types marketed for tourists or real ones, but expensive--none in between.

If I was near Montreal I'd have to check it out.
