I just got a concert spruce topped flea from magic fluke. They did accustom blue top for me with rosewood frets, walnut neck and peghed tuners. It's such a fun instrument to play!

Nice ukes..very good for the money..ukulele acquisition syndrome is bad news! lol..I have loads of ukes, I love all of them.. ( try a makala dolphin and put on aquila super nylgut strings on? Sweet hawaii sound!) ☺
Finally got a chance to take a pic of my "little ones" hehe. I think I may be startin' a case of U.A.S. !!! My Kala ka-asov-s which required so much fine tuning and string changes to make it work. I think I'll name it "blood, sweat, & tears." My Islander AS-4 that I won recently. I'll call it "little bear" because the fret ends were sharp as bear claws. Spent a good hour and a half filing and polishing the frets. But, it sounds good and intonation excellent. Then there is my pride and joy. An all mahogany Tiny Tenor by Romero Creations. Perfection. I think it should be called "Lumière" because she reminds me of a British race horse by that name.
Here is my harp ukulele wannabe. Dulset tones, shimmering harmonics, sound nuances and timbre and romantic rhythms and and and all that "don't block the cash register stuff". giggle.
hi all, I am a newbie here but have been playing Uke several years. Here is my awesome collection.
You'll see my UBASS, Makala Waterman, Luna Hightide Concert size, my Makala Pineapple, the Makala Shark which started it all, my Bohemian Guitars Surf Wax electric, and my sort of identified vintage Super Tenor. The vintage one is tuned GCEA but is 29" so I've just classified it as a big tenor. As for manufacturing information best I can figure it's from about the 1950s and is either a Telleno or Bobby Henshaw Uke. It matches images of Telleno ukes perfectly, but on the headstock there is the shadow of a sticker or brand that was once on it and the shape of that shadow matches perfectly to the Bobby Henshaw shape and placement. So I am leaning towards it being that.
