I have mixed feelings about the Klos ukes. I bought one of the original "hybrid" ukes (back when that was all they made) on Kickstarter, and quite like it. But I had to do quite a bit of work to it to get the action down due to a poor neck angle. By the time I got to where I wanted it (~2.5 mm at 12th fret) there was almost no saddle left, so I had to then sand down the bridge to expose some saddle. The end result plays like a dream, but is not as loud as my other tenors.
I later ordered one of their all carbon ukes on Kickstarter, and unfortunately this one also arrived with what I considered a poor neck angle. But I wasn't willing to try and sand down a composite bridge, so I sent it back.
