Just Finished: Tenor Ukulele

Just finished a new tenor ukulele.  It is a commission and the buyer is picking it up today.  It sounds and plays as great as it looks.  It’s an all koa body (moderately figured) with maple body binding, mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, bridge, and head plate, bone saddle and nut, and Grover, black buttoned tuners.  Not much decoration on this one (the buyer wanted simple), but I did include black/white/black purfling on the top and back, a paua abalone sound hole ring, and a simple paua abalone letter “G” (the buyer’s initial) on the head stock.

Ukuleles

I’m not sure what’s going on, but there seems to be ukulele fever spreading.  My entire output for 2010 was ukuleles (3 instruments to be exact).  These are pictures of older ukes, but I will be posting pictures of some of the newer ones soon.
