I'm making a uke for someone who really likes a bright sounding uke. Think of the sound that Taimane Gardner gets. It's a bright, quick attack with a lot of tone to back it up.
The uke is going to be all myrtle for the body with a mahogany neck.
Does anyone have any tips on how to make the sound really pop?
I'm going to try making the depth of the body a little thinner than I usually do, and I'm pretty sure I'll be adding a side port.
Is there anything else that I should be thinking about?
Also, any suggestions on string choice?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!
