I have played the concert oha briefly in a store, some time ago. I remembered that it was extremely light in weight. It sounded, if I remembered correctly, it is chimey with a bell like tone. The...

I had the kamaka strings on the martin C1K. Liked it a lot. It didn’t have a long sustain but had a sweet mellow voice to it. But that’s expected of any nylon strings, but I just like the black...

Congrats on your second aNueNue. I’m a fan of a larger bottom bout both in looks and the deeper voice.

I think most, if not, all small scale production luthiers, or at least the one I know of, does the following to ensure a great sounding ukulele worthy of the price tag.

1. Wood for Soundboard,...

There you go! Not closed perhaps there a chance.

I have the same miserable face as kkimura and it’s not a reflection of my emotion at all. I can force a smile but the face will gradually change to the unhappy face.

Take natural talent to do this!

So glad I’m not alone with uke playing facial disorder. Lol. Uke playing is serious business.

So.. I have been told I have a frowning face whenever I played. My fingers simply stop playing whenever I tried to force a smile. How do the pros do this, a big smile while running through a maze of...

I thought I got a case of de ja vu when I thought I remembered of another 5 string uke that you posted earlier!

Congrats Jerry! You got both ends of 5 string ukes, exp and cheap. Which one do you...

My last uke is the moon bird soprano. It has completely stop the UAS in me. Been 9 months since I have looked at another uke. However, I do not think that the moon bird is really the uke I’m looking...

Stock black water with Aquila Red Low G on my soprano moon bird. Love the mellowness of the red nylon Low g as some Low g can be too overpowering and had a drone like sound. This combination makes...

I thought I chime in my bit as I have played all 3 sizes of Kamaka mentioned here.. standard, long neck soprano, concert. All are strung with the stock black nylon strings.

My vote will be for the...

I have the moon bird soprano and only replaced the stocked G string with the Aquila Red Low G. I think it work well with the stocked black water strings. Only downside is that the red takes a Long...

I was trying to post to your thread on bending wood. Was asking if you got a bathtub for soaking the wood soft. Then the system blocked me.



Thanks, I will try your suggestion next time, but I...

Thanks for checking out my paintings, snowdenn! I don’t know.. some things just creeps me out when I do like horror stuff.

Some spalted patterns do give me the chills though. I think someone shared a for sale spalted mango uke and I thought the pattern resembled human spine and some said it looked the underside of a...

And that’s why I keep mine in their individual cases, bag etc.

Can I post? I have been notified on a “forbidden. Sender blocked”.

Edit:
Finally able to post something. Been think what have I done wrong since was blocked by UU yesterday.

So my...

I only like mango when it’s spalted. I do wonder the tonal quality between a spalted and non spalted mango.

Oh my.. sorry to hear this. Perhaps if there’s a FAQ at the lava website as well? Meanwhile I hope that UR takes it back.

I’m just wondering if rope binding made from scratch is like the pinnacle of luthier craftsmanship despite the fact that most of us or half of us hate it.

Hope it work out for you!

Martin uses the Tusq saddle, at least for my S1.

Also in the same video, the current Long neck soprano will be discontinued..
