Hello,
I saw pictures and heard youtubes of two different ukuleles with personal soundholes, the Riptide and the Tall Grass Bamboo. I am very curious about the soundhole idea. I noticed that the Riptide has the soundhole on the lower bout of the ukulele while the Tall Grass has it on the upper bout.
I am thinking of putting a soundhole in my Makala Dolphin. I want to go to the hardware store and get a 1 1/8 or 1 1/4 " holesaw to make the cut. I don't know what would be the proper diameter for the hole to get the best tone.
Any thoughts on this operation?
