Old Clarion soprano ukulele

waterdog226 · Jul 22, 2011

I was 'gifted' an old Clarion mahogany soprano ukulele. The luthier techs who restored it think it is older then the fifties ukes usually referenced in the Tikiking discussions. Any ideas? I posted it on Youtube as a way show people. She is a nice old lady. The url is below.

That old lady looks and sounds quite pretty; congratulations on receiving such a thoughtful gift!

You may want to send photos of the uke, headstock, and soundhole info (if there is any) to Flea Market's Collector's Uke Yak or the Ukulele Hall of Fame Museum's Vintage Ukulele Q & A. These folks know their stuff!
