Here is a new concert size cigar box ukulele made from an old redwood 1886 cigar box. These boxes have a sound that makes a great mellow sounding uke unlike any other. The top is thinned and proper braced for the best possible volume and sustain. The neck is made of wormy Mango wood and has a graphite truss rod for life long durability and strength. The head plate, finger board and bridge are a multi-colored wooden mosaic of local and exotic hardwoods. The frets are larger than standard for easy playing and there are 18 total, all clear of the body. The playing scale length is 15". It has a bone nut and bridge saddle. The tuners are chrome Grover brand with hand-made hardwood knobs of Cocobola, Ebony, Peach, and Birds Eye maple. It has CF Worth brand strings. The finish is nitrocellulose lacquer. The playing action is easy and the intonation is accurate. Your complete satisfaction is guaranteed. No case but I will double box for safe shipping. Made in the USA. $30 shipping in the USA lower 48 states. Payment by money order, personal check or bank draft only, no Paypal. Email me if you need more information. Thanks for looking.


Price: $650
