Chuck Moore is a great artist, not just a ukulele maker. Maybe we could actually forget about the high price for a while and talk about the inlay work, the scrimshaw work, the uke making, and how these art forms have been all integrated into one amazing package. If you look at lot of scrimshaw work, it is smaller than the inlay on this uke. Scrimshaw fanatics will be looking at buying the uke because it is an amazing example of an old art, they wont really be caring about how it plays or sounds, the wood is just a frame to them. Inlay fanatics will be looking at the inlay, they are going to see the uke part as a frame or mount for a magnificent piece of inlay.
This would make a very nice show piece for any collector.
