Has anyone here gotten a cigarbox uke from Papa's Boxes? I've heard a couple on Youtube and they sound pretty cool, and I like the "semi-headless" look... Plus, you can't beat the price!
I've got one on order, actually... So I'll definitely report back!
You mind throwing up a link or two to the vids?
Holy! That was fast!
you don't have uas. no. not at all...

This is something I've been wondering about.
