Here's a Hula Hips Ukulele with Rosewood and Engleman Spruce. The Hula Hips Tenor is a wide body tenor--in other words, a Grand Concert Tenor. I added a little to the upper bout and 1/2" to the lower and also lengthened the body by 1/4".…

This instrument was custom for Sheila who liked the last one that I built for Hale Ukulele San Diego so much that she had to have one of her own. We made a few changes…
This is Fae's new Black Walnut Koa Custom Tenor Ukulele. Fae asked for something a little different and I suggested this combination of woods. I have used this combination of woods before and found the end result to be very pleasing in…
