SAKURA UKULELE, exclusive to the 2025 One Day Guitar Show, features a body made from cherry blossoms from Kyoto! Following the highly acclaimed Kyoto-inspired coloring of the Headway and Momose brands, a new cherry blossom ukulele has been born that evokes the elegant atmosphere of Kyoto! The sound hole label features an original "Kyoto Weave" label by Tatsunoya, a Kyoto weaver who inherits the tradition of Nishijin weaving. This model also features a flat fingerboard with no radius, focusing on how the right hand contacts the strings when strumming, resulting in a more ukulele-like playing feel. The coloring is based on the theme of "purple," the color of the ancient capital of Kyoto. It is finished in all lacquer, a first for Sakura Ukuleles, and enhances the texture and sound. "We want to create a new style of textile. Based on the concept of 'textiles in everyday life,' this is a new and free-flowing textile woven using the traditions and techniques of Kyoto Nishijin weaving." - Source: Tatenoya In collaboration with Tatenoya, a Kyoto weaver who carries on the traditions of Nishijin weaving, we have adopted an original "Kyoto Weaving" soundhole label. The serial number is individually embroidered on each piece.(Specification) Body Top: Sakura Body Side & Back: Sakura Neck: Sakura Fingerboard: Purpleheart Nut:Bone Saddle: Bone Bridge: Purpleheart Machineheads: GOTOH UPT-UBN-GG Fret: SANKO(R)?SBU-23 Scale: 381mm (15 inches) Width at Nut: 35mm Finish: All Lacquar Strings: D'addario(R) (.0280, .0322, .0403, .0280) Accessories: Case, warranty card
