Nice work.
Where do you place your dots on the fretboard?

Been a while since I posted anything.... Here's my latest ukulele. Martin Concert size in all mahogany. Spanish cedar neck, Ziricote fingerboard, tortoise shell binding, french polish shellac finish. Nothing fancy, just a nice mahogany uke and it sounds really sweet with fluorocarbon strings. This was some of my 2012 Hibdon black friday wood....I love building these ukuleles for under $5 (hardware and bindings not included). Sorry for the crappy photos. Its already wrapped and sent out for Christmas. |

Quine vy nice indeed, the FP goes vy well with the overall look. One observation on my part. You can get a little more volume by cutting down the weight on the bridge by using a black walnut with 3mm wings. instead of the ebony. Ebony looks nicer ,esp w/mahogany. But I think you will get a nicer punchier sounding uke with walnut.. I especially luv the walnut I got from a historic 200 yr old house in st louis , it/s lighter and denser than the local stuff.my 2 cents. worth. |
