Thank you for your kind words and interest, Uncle John. Yep, Flatpup wound to 8k. I'm looking forward to hear how it sings or squawks... depending on how I play it! Ha ha... The back of the uke bridge is also "curved" to match. Ambrose... Bro, Rosy, Amby... (St Ambrosia - Greek name Ambrosios meaning "immortal"... apparently). I'm sure you would know a lot more.
It's sure looking good. Curvy, swoopy top, Elmar, and a really nice finish on the neck. Getting fancy on the saddle/bridge. Ambrose? I currently live near a German community and there are or were several old guys named Ambrose. Most of them had nick names.
