So I'll start this Blog only about 2 years after getting registered, and after 2 CBG's already built in the last 3 years... with a presentation of my latest built, a Cohiba Ukulele.
Scale is 350mm, the box is of Cuban origin (not to worry, I'm residing in the EU), the neck is made from scrap wood (probably ash), bridge and nut are from home grown prune wood harvested in my own garden.
Strings are, so far, classic guitar strings I recycled after having them replaced, well, on my classic guitar.
Have a look:
Now, that little lady is far from being perfect. Still, it is playable, and keeps its tune.

Hi Lonman, you are a gentleman; it is indeed intended to represent a cigar. It is drawn with "wood cosmetics" pens. Without it the fretboard looked too blank at the box end, and any more frets would be useless anyway.
heck yes, nice job, looks like a cigar on the fretboard, is that woodburned or drawn on? Nice touch that is
