Resonator Soprano Uke

Posted by Scott W on June 15, 2015 at 9:56am

Hammered can lid resonator, mahogany neck, curly mahogany fretboard with mother of pearl inlay and side position markers, cedar veneer head, ebony and walnut banjo-style bridge, ebony tailpiece, acoustic pickup. It plays like a champ!

Thank you, gents! It is has been a great build - new challenges and skills to learn but it all went smoothly. uncle John, it has about a 13" vibrating string length, but that is to the middle of the resonator, so it is a bit bigger due to construction.

That hammered look came out great. Nice instrument. Looks bigger than a soprano in the photo.
