David,
That is a beautiful TENOR(edit). The logo looks great.
And I can't wait to hear a sound sample from HMS.
Well done.

Hey Johnson.....David said it was a tenor.....just incase it wasn't a typo caused by ONO-LUST!!!!
Another beautiful instrument David. Is that a pore filled finish, the glossiness is excellent. Does it have a radius fretboard. Please say yes....say no...say yes....say no. I don't need another tenor at the moment....but......Oh this is so nerve racking.

YES on the radiused board. So don't be disappointed.
And it is fully pore filled and glossy. The finish on the top is thin, for the obvious reason, so the spruce grain can be seen just a bit.
Now you've done it. After seeing the beautiful grain in that rose wood, I had to recharge my pace maker. Hummmmmm, now how could I possibly justify another uke, and where would I put it ? (and how much would the divorce settlement cost me?)

Another top-notch ukulele, David
David, I have to say that you build the classiest looking ukuleles of anybody out there. They are always elegant and understated. You have an excellent eye for what works well together. Congratulations on another beauty!

Thanks, Dave. I fixed it. Maybe I was confused. I have spent so much time on his website trying to satisfy my ONO-lust. (I like that)
I love the simplistic beauty.

Is the finish nitro lacquer?

Truly superb craftsmanship, beautifully clean & elegant. My UAS is definitely starting to rumble.
Thanks, Hodge!
I'm reluctant to spray without proper facilities, for which I don't have room, so all my finishes are applied by hand. This is poly varnish that is built up by brushing and then wet sanded and buffed.
And thanks also to everyone else for your kind remarks!
Wow, "CLASSY" looking is an understatement. An amazing looking instrument.

That's one of the most beautiful ukuleles I've seen!
The best reward for a builder is an instrument well played. This gentleman rocks!
