Just a couple new ukes that are headed out into the world.
You can see more about these ukes on DeVineGuitars.com

Aloha Eric,
Beautiful as always....you're at the top of my Fantasy wish list...................Bo.................
 
I think I like your basic stuff better. using CNC and having purfling premade isn't as exciting to me. However your ukes sound amazing and that is the most important factor.
 
some day hopefully soon<Dreaming/Praying> :drool:

If I wanted a custom anything...it would be a DeVine First and foremost...money no object, imho! Beautiful as always! :shaka:

Two-year waiting period <facepalm> :wallbash:

I'm sure Tyler will do a video of each. I enjoy those very much, Eric.
 
Those are amazing instruments and a tour of your website is beyond superlatives. Just stunning!

If you don't mind a design question....is it luthier convention or your personal design to put the sound hole to the right of the fingerboard as you look at the instrument? I've seen some players that fingerpick or strum with their right hand at the last couple of frets and that position would place their hand over (or very near) the sound hole. I was wondering if anyone tried putting the sound hole on the face of the instrument to the left of the fingerboard instead of to the right?

Thanks for the visual feast!
 
Thanks guys for all the feedback!

I have my soundhole to the right of the fretboard because my bracing requires that I use the space where the soundhole would normally be. It actually doesn't get in the way when playing. I think Chuck Moore does a soundhole on the left side occasionally.

No cnc here and I make my own purfling.
