Hi All,
I have a spare soprano neck and I want to make a Cigar Box Uke but I'm not having much success in finding a suitable box. I'm also hankering after a plastic Uke so I thought I could maybe combine the two and build a Uke from a plastic box.
I've found this one on ebay and wondered if it was suitable:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360176835565&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
It's an ABS box which I think is a softish plastic. Would I be better with a Polycarbonate box, which I think is a hard plastic?
Is this a crazy idea?
Cheers,
Ian.
