HPL Concert Uke Shootout! Martin OXK vs Enya EUC-X1

Comparison of two High Pressure Laminate (HPL) Concert Ukuleles. Martin OXK and Enya EUC-X1. The Martin is strung with Aquila Reds, the Enya is strung with fluorocarbon strings, both in high G. I replaced the saddle on the Martin uke with an uncompensated bone saddle and Aquila Red strings to try and brighten it up a bit and reduce the boominess of the "C" string. In addition to that, I replaced the friction tuners on the Martin with Grover geared tuners. The friction tuners look more traditional, but I prefer the operation of the geared tuners.
