I know a Jenny, and I know a bushman. But I don't know a bushman Jenny.
It's a rare uke, considering they took orders and never sent the ukes. So, the fact that you have one, does that make you "in on it"?

Seeing is believing. How long did it take for your order to be fulfilled?

Is this another one of those the cake is a lie things?
Yes, I'd like to see the mythical beast.

Gerald Ross has a Bushman Jenny concert size. See video above at 5:45 minutes to see the mythical beast.
But the Bushman Jenny Tenor size remains as elusive as Sasquatch himself.

Did you pilfer it from George Hinchliffe? I would love to have one, with the name and all, but alas, I like my love affairs with instruments to be more natural and organic - not the Hunt for Red Octoberesque.

So.......I got my Jenny about 4 + years ago from Hilo Guitar here on the Big Island.I have collected vintage for years and was just in the need of a tenor to strum while watching the ocean.Ken at Hilo was kind of pushing Bushman at that time(he actually gave a pair as door prizes at the Big Island Guitar and Ukulele Festival that year).
Anyway I went back a year or so later to see if he had any other Bushmans and he said he could not get them.It sounded as if the Bushman owner was kind of a highroller and was into other things and not able to supply product.Phone calls unaswered kind of thing.
I like my Jenny a lot.It's not the best uke I have ever had(that was a 5k I got from Bill Tapia) but it is a uke I tend to play alot.FWIW.
Aloha,
Michael

Bushman has changed suppliers numerous times in recent years.
Savagehenry has a concert Eleuke prototype that's actually a "Bushman Jenny." It's a pretty little thing. He just put some Living Waters strings on it and wow, did that thing come alive.
