St George Classique

I spotted an old ukulele the other day. "St George Classique 2" says the label. All I know is it's old, soprano, post tuners, has surprising tone for such an old piece. No camera on hand, but I'll bring one next week when I get over there again.

The owner doesn't know anything about the history either. Says he got it off the wall of a surf shop some years ago to goof off. He was impressed enough with the sound that he bought it.

I got some images yesterday. The ukulele is solid wood. I'm thinking mahogany. Tuners are traditional peg. It's a standard (soprano) sized instrument. If anyone can offer some insight on this uke, it'll be much appreciated.

Two more shots:





There are no other identifying marks on it. The label has no date, place, or anything else pointing us anywhere.
