I am interested in purchasing a Gypsy Jazz style ukulele. I would prefer the oval hole type but will be interested in looking at anything you have as they are not very common. Please PM if you have one for sale. Tenor size only.
Thanks,
Chris
 
Bruce Wei Arts in Vietnam made me a Grande Bouche (wide oval soundhole) for $780 shipped, and he also sells ready made ones on eBay for about $400-$550 plus $70 shipping to the US. I find that he makes very good stuff. Which oval are you asking about?

You beat me to it! I have owned several ukes in the gypsy jazz style, including LFdM, Michael Dunn, and Toby Chennell. While all were fabulous instruments, I firmly believe Luis Feu de Mesquita makes the finest uke in this style available today. The one being sold right now by Doc J is a steal and a half.
 
Played my gypsy jazz Django uke today in the park with about 10 guitar players, and I have to say, it's very nice. I still suggest you check with Bruce Wei Arts.
