... and I've still got all six. I guess I've got some serious competition now, or have banjo ukes fallen out of favor?

Hi Dave,
My last one took a while to sell, but the two previous sold quickly. Maybe it's the season.

Thanks! I just put one of them on ebay in hopes of generating some interest... https://www.ebay.com/itm/272948716805?ul_noapp=true

Width is 1 3/8 at the nut, 1 3/4 at the heel, about 5/8 thick at the nut. Over-all weight is about 30 oz (some variation depending on the wood species).
Hey and there is only one bid on the one for sale on eBay - 2 hours to go...
Thanks. I probably won't decide that quickly, still debating between soprano and concert. I have only been able to locate one video, and it didn't really show off uke, more gocused on the person singing.
Are there any sound samples or videos? I swore I wouldn't buy any more ukes sight unseen. Or sound unheard, I guess.

I've had two of these Waverly Street ukes and they are nicely made/ nicely done. A good value for the money especially since they're made in the US.

Off thread a little, but Jenna Fischer (Pam from The Office) posted this comedy banjo video on Twitter and I realized there was another banjo ukulele thread that needed this in it. So I give you: the bandrum.

LOL - not sure what to make of that
. Everybody wants tenors now, eh? I'll look into it.
All I've got left (before Christmas) is the two sopranos. They are really nice sopranos

I'm still trying to figure out if there's a sound difference between soprano and concert since the pots are the same size. This is boiling down to a hand size thing for me. Good luck Dave!

Yeah man, where you been? :agree: ;-)
16" in-between would also be cool - you'd corner the market!
