Congratulations in advance! It looks from the pictures like it still needs the tuning machines to be installed on the headstock.
 
Ooh la la! Imagine how stunning it will be with the finish!!
 
Congratulations John !!! I really love the mandolin-like body design of that tenor; I bet it sounds fantastic. Please post pictures and a review after receiving it.
 
Jealous! Love the Boat Paddles. One day, maybe.

Congrats!!!
 
If I were you John, I'd spend the extra money and get tuners. ;)

Looks great, hope you get it in your hands soon
 
Congrats, another stunner from Boat Paddle
 
that's a snazzy b-paddle uke, j.
 
WOW! I wasn't expecting it to look that nice! There are some interesting and tasteful design elements there. Can't wait to see the finished product!
 
Jerry's work keeps getting better and better. I hope you love your new BP as much as I love mine.
 
I love LoVe LOVE my two BP ukes (one tenor and one concert). They are my go-to ukes.

I hope that you will like yours as much as I do mine!
 
That's mighty nice John, built well I'm sure. Here's my foray into the mandolele world, from Vietnam, tenor, solid spruce top, solid curly maple body, not very good construction, but beautiful design and finish. Won it on an eBay auction for $51 US. Took some work by Brad from Anacapa/U-Space to set it up.
