Sounds nice! My next will be an Uke, I hope I have as much success. I didn't know Racer-X was such a Jason Mraz fan. . .

Thanks Bryan. I learned a lot building this ukulele. Specifically, how not to bind one,how to re-top one, and how I have no business building ukes!!

Thanks Wud!
I had the same issue building this uke as I did with my first guitar; I don't know what a good uke is supposed to sound like!

It sounds ok in person. I think the owner will be happy.

Thanks Steve! It sounds better than the $99 ukes at the local big box store. But that's not saying much, is it?

It has a rich sound to it that I like. [:Y:] Most ukes I've heard sound a bit dead, not much harmonic content, I suppose. Maybe they are just overbuilt idunno

Did you post an audio, or did I miss it?
Looks great, Tony. The only concert uke I've built (just for my self) has a similar sized soundhole. I didn't have a circle cutter that would go smaller than the tenor-sized hole I usually make, so I just cut that size out. One does see a bit more tentalone than necessary, but didn't seem to cause any problems with the sound.

Looks like two people have cared so far. I can assure you it wasn't me (I haven't voted yet).

My look of studied indifference is often mistaken for empathy or even (gasp) caring. So while I often dangle to hook into the water, I rarely bait it!
Have a carefree day, all!

I'm happy to hear you practice not caring. I thought it came naturally.

What are you hiding Tony? There's not a single picture or video shot that shows the headstock of your careless uke. Inquiring minds want to know WHY???!!! (but don't care one way or the other...)

Cheers,

There is a secret inlay on the headstock. Double secret actually.



Ok. I didn't even notice that I did that. The uke has gone to live with its owner so if I don't have any pics of the headstock, I can no longer take any. I'll look tonight.
