Great uke in superb shape and all original with what appears could be an original case. A bit of sheen to areas of the finish from being played and some very minor finish crazing bc it’s a vintage uke but no significant dings or scratches. $old Pics here (proof of possession pic in link)...

btw, i would guess that is bc there is very little string tension that would result in some relief in the neck like steel strings would cause.

thanks! i have considered building a uke and am about to build a classical. i am in the midst of building two steel strings. it appears the set up for a uke is similar to that of a classical in which the neck is set in a manner that it is offset up to 3-4mm at the bridge.

do you have a photo of the end of your jig near the nut?

seems like a mini J-45 would be cool. the slope shoulder design would look better at size of a uke.

has anyone ever attempted to "downsize" a classic guitar design (i.e. D-18 or D-28) and build a baritone uke version?
