Ken, that's good. A couple suggestions for use...
As is, you use it as a bar hook, when you get a little tipsy and need two hands to keep the beer glass goin' towards your mouth and not your neighbors ear - well then you just hang the uke on the edge of the bar and you're all set.
Or you use it as a little whammy thumb bar. You need a loop that goes around the strings (beyond the nut) and tightens up when you move the whammy bar with your thumb. Then you grip a chord with your fingers and start bending it up like a pro.

Is that for an extra C string? Very interesting.

Certainly looks like it. If there is one string I don't need doubled up, it's the C string. It's too dominant as it is.

6 string ukes double the C & A

Yep, I've built a lot of 5 string ukes with a double octave C.
With Ken's uke, a better solution would've probably been to add the additional tuner at the apex of the peg head.

There was just one on ebay. I tried to win it but did not outbid the winner. Whoever won got a real good deal for one of your ukes.

Wouldn't putting a peg there impede one's hand when playing open and first position chords??

Ken, is the fifth peg broken, or is it really set at an angle?
