Over the past couple of years, I have done a lot of research to figure out which custom builders appeal most to me. John S. Kinnard was one of them, and he has just started building my new Ukulele. My idea for it was that of a contemporary tenor, but in the concert size. It will have a Cocobolo body and a Sinker Redwood top with Series 3 appointments, Maple binding, Abalone rosette, a slotted headstock and a side sound port.
Kevin from KinnardUkes has been eager to keep me updated with pictures, so I thought I'd share some of them with you.
Bending of the sides:
Sinker Redwood top with blue Paua Abalone rosette:
Cocobolo back:
The box is closed:
It was my request for a dark, brownish piece of Cocobolo to match the Sinker Redwood top:
