Martin C1 Uke - Nearly New Overview
The Martin C1 Ukulele is a masterfully constructed instrument that showcases the exceptional tonal qualities of its materials. Its concert-shaped body, made of koa fine veneer for both the top and body, exudes warm, rich tones that resonate beautifully with each strum. This choice of wood not only lends an air of sophistication to the ukulele's appearance but also contributes significantly to its sound profile. The natural colour, hand-rubbed finish, and morado bridge further emphasise the premium quality of the materials used, while the laser-etched spearhead pattern rosette adds a unique touch to the design.
In terms of playability, the C1 truly excels. The select hardwood neck and standard taper, provides a comfortable and smooth experience. It is attached to the body with an applied dovetail construction, which ensures the stability of the neck, while the 15" scale length, sipo fingerboard, and seventeen frets offer ease of navigation across the instrument.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionThe finest blend of materials
The tonal qualities of the C1 are greatly influenced by the carefully selected materials used in its construction. The top and body, both featuring a koa fine veneer, produce warm and rich tones that are highly sought after by musicians. This exotic wood not only adds visual appeal to the instrument but also imparts a unique sonic character, blending bright highs with mellow lows for a well-rounded sound. Complementing the koa is a select hardwood neck, which contributes to the ukulele's overall resonance and sustain, ensuring a stable and consistent tone throughout the range. Meanwhile, the sipo fingerboard material provides a smooth and responsive playing surface that allows the true voice of the ukulele to shine through. The combination of these high-quality materials results in a remarkable instrument with exceptional tonal qualities that will delight players of all skill levels.
Truly perfect playability
Martin instruments always deliver with its playability, and the C1 is no exception. This instrument offers an outstanding experience. Its concert shape and size provide a comfortable playing experience, while the select hardwood neck with a standard taper ensures a smooth and secure grip, allowing for effortless chord transitions and fingerpicking. Its applied dovetail construction guarantees the stability, enhancing the overall playability of the instrument. What's more, its 15" scale length, combined with the sipo fingerboard and seventeen frets, offer ease of navigation across the ukulele's range, enabling you to explore various genres and styles with confidence. A testament to its thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship, providing you with an instrument that is as enjoyable to play as it is beautiful to behold.
Classic concert shape
The concert ukulele shape offers several benefits, making it a popular choice among musicians. One of the most notable advantages of this shape is its slightly larger size compared to the soprano ukulele, providing more room on the fingerboard for easier fretting and chord formation. This makes it an excellent option for beginners who are learning to play, as well as for experienced players seeking improved comfort and playability. This shape also produces fuller, richer sounds with increased volume and projection, thanks to its larger body cavity. This enhanced tonal quality allows you to explore a wider range of styles and genres, making the concert ukulele a versatile instrument suitable for various musical settings. Furthermore, it strikes the perfect balance between portability and performance, offering a compact size that is still easy to transport and store while delivering a satisfying playing experience.
