Yes. Paddy Burgin in NZ makes em. I've talked with him about them. He can make them with nylon or steel strings. He makes some of the nicest Weissenborn guitars out there. His Weissen-uke sounds sweet.
This one is strung up with nylon strings, I believe.
Keep checking the market place on Flea Market Music. Every so often one shows up. Good luck.This turning into my new Holy Grail.

The most spectacular Weissenborns I've seen were on display at the Aloha Spirit exhibit of 'ukulele and Aloha shirts that just closed at the Casa Romantica in San Clemente. It's a matched pair of custom concerts made ca. 1920 for a player named Walter Brunner, still in the original case. They're from the Jim O'Mahoney collection. I've never seen anything like it.
