I have for SALE this beautiful standard sized Mango Tenor Ukulele body with neck scale size 17"
Hand built by a retired Master Carpenter at his home work shop in South Wales & it is very individual in design with its old fashioned appearance.
The all solid body with an arched back construction is made from aged book matched Mango & the neck is made from 40 year old seasoned Brazilian mahogany with a banjo style head stock incorporating a Mango inlay to match the body.
The unique looking pinned bridge with bone saddle & the fretboard is made of aged Rosewood & the tail piece wedge is mahogany. The fretboard has inlayed mother of pearl marker dots & a bone nut.
It is strung with Aquila strings and tuned high G, C, E, A by using the high quality enclosed chrome geared tuners with mother of pearl buttons.
The ukulele’s intonation is excellent & the instrument plays well & produces a sweet sound to the ear as you would expect from solid Mango.
Prior to me posting this advert I had a Luthier check over the instrument & this tenor ukulele is in pristine condition with no damage, scratches or repairs.
I’m only selling this fine example of craftsmanship because I prefer a Concert size ukulele.
Potential buyers are welcome to view this ukulele by appointment.
Payment by “PayPal as a GIFT” or with prior arrangements, “Cash on Collection.”
To reduce the chance of damage in transit, I’m not prepared to post this work of art, so….
“COLLECTION ONLY” & “UK BUYERS ONLY”
My selling price for this exceptional ukulele is £180.
