- I have repaired several ukuleles over the last few months and all have played and looked as new when I finished.
We have several uku's inc a gretsch resonating and I like being a little out of the ordinary, so for my first full build a cigar box is right up my street

Hi, Kenneth. Your uke came out well! Good job. Welcome to the home made instrument world. I can't quit building and playing them. I am mostly a 4 string guy this past year or so. Some uke, but more tenor guitar in DGBE and GDGB tunings. It is good to have you for a CBN friend.
Kenneth - great looking uke. Put's most first builds to shame! Hope you plan to continue building.As you have probably heard, this is hobby that can grab you and hold you for a long time. I started out @ 18 months ago, and I am working on #31 & #32 right now. I am hooked! Best wishes to you.
