This pretty uke was a flop and was parted out.

It almost went to the fire pit after saving the machine heads. But more parts were salvaged. 3 photo series.Volume was very poor due to me over building and not having the bridge a bit more inboard.

    Thanks, Jerry.  I salvage that neck and rebuilt it.  Waiting on strings and crossing my fingers that it will be a player yet.

    306593226?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024306594921?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024We just built 5 of these for our local CBG club, The Sacramento Area CBG Workshop.  The box is a little longer and we used only one strip of 1/6th thick ply cut from a box bottom to reinforce the string holes.  Great sound.

    I was happy with that detail too, Bruce.    Too late for the piezo.  All stripped down for a different day and build.

    Very pretty! I like how the FB goes over the sound hole. Stick a piezo in to make it louder!
