Sold! "Ken Timms" Soprano Ukulele ( Europe)

[Joralin]

Im selling my "Ken Timms" soprano ukulele.

It is in good condition, with some slightly marks of usage (mainly on the back).

A great ukulele, and really loud. Fitted with "Anuenue Blackwater" Strings.

Really pretty lighter mahogany, unfortunatley not the best light for pictures in my living room at winter.


It comes with a used, but sturdy hardcase.

The price is 700 € + actual shipping costs from germany.

How’s it possible this is still here?

Not nearly as much demand for Timms ukes in mainland Europe compared to the UK or US. I had trouble selling mine a few years back, and that was a Cuban mahogany Timms with 17 frets (assuming the one the OP has is a "regular" Brazilian or Honduran mahogany one).

Well most people in Europe never played one, otherwise they would change their mind;-).

I only sell it because I have two. They both sound extremely good.

I sell this one, because my other one has more wear and therefore would be harder to sell.

At least it is becomming more popular in Germany so I will try to sell it locally too.

That may be true, but this uke ad has worldwide exposure through UU.

It would be a shame to spoil someone’s sale and I wish the OP well. The instrument will sell in time, but the world is a bit crazy at the moment.

It is true that Ken has sales exposure through UU, but that’s only to speakers of ‘English’ … a lot of people don’t speak ‘English’. The instrument is in Germany. Continental Europeans have ukulele forums in their own languages (eg. http://www.ukulelenboard.de/index.php?PHPSESSID=5807907ccc2c26d7d5cf36bce8c42bb7&action=forum ); many players in Continental Europe might know very little of Ken and maybe they have their own preferred brands too - possibly people who are just like Ken but unknown to us.
