Hi Guys,I have two nice factotry made ukes that are quit nice but both have narrow necks and i have larfe fingers ,I have looked about at whats avalable but just don't see anything that really pleases my eye.I have been lead to believe that a quality uke can be made from a cigar box with the back removed and good sound board added.I have asked for a couple of quotes from guys I know on here that make cigar box ukes in the UK the latter from a guy who is a very good luthiuer but didn't mail him till Friday.I have bought a really good quality hard wood cigar box with dove taled corners 12" x 8 3/4" x 2" and i have bought a 24" x 22 X 22"length of zebrano the main thing missing is a deciant sound board which I would love to be koa but would I be able to aquire that in the UK ? Any other guys in the UK intersted in giving me a quote for a tenor cigar box uke please message me pictures below of the materials I have aquired already Mal (Hull)
