This is a beautiful custom Kinnard Kiku in Cocobolo with a torrified Sitka Spruce top that sounds absolutely amazing.  It has a 20" scale and 1-7/8" nut width.  The cocobolo in the body is matched up with curly Koa binding with our Series 3 mitered purfling motif and features a side soundport to bring the sound up to the players ear.  The torrifed Sitka is a beautiful honey color and matches nicely with the custom floating rosette in abalone that distinguishes it as "Kiku".  For the neck we used Mahogany to match the coloring in the Cocobolo and did our "floating inlay" in Koa.  It incorporates a paddle headstock featuring Gotoh UPT tuner and has an Ebony face plate with the logo inlayed in Mother of Pearl.  The fretboard and bridge are also Ebony and the instrument epitomizes the design mantra of Kinnard ukuleles, "Understated elegance".
