I went to French Polynesia this summer, very impressed with the place and the people/culture.
Bought 2 Tahitian ukulele, turns out to be very challenging to play Polynesian style and I am a seasoned guitar player.
I wished I bought more uku's there, they are so beautiful. But wife said not allowed.
So I have decided to make my own, and save the real thing from wearing out
Here is the first of 4 I am going to build. Wood is African sapele. supposed to be excellent tonal qualities, very similar wood to Brazilian mahogany
