Hi Steve,

Thanks for the welcome. I think the build process is addictive regardless of the instrument. I'm now on Uke number twelve.
By the way I live in Paradise Beach.

Cheers

Daryl

Hi All,

My name us Daryl and I live in Gippsland Victoria.

I have just joined the group and am yet to build my first guitar box. I build tenor ukuleles normally so I am looking forward to a different challenge.
