£1200 with hard shell case. Concert Ditson Style Ukulele with matt finish, planetary tuners and HSC. Shipping to UK £45 elsewhere £90. Dollar price is easily found by using any online currency convertor - with Brexit making the GBP wobbly I can only quote in my own currency - you have to do the math!

Front view showing 12 frets to the body join.

Sound 'sap' join. The curl is 'consolidated' using a cyanoacrylate pore fill with an epoxy grain fill over the top of this. Matt finish cellulose.

This logo used to appear on the headstock. It's on the 7th fret here and further help is on the side of the fingerboard with a dot at the 7th and 12th frets.

My standard 'invisible' but join and view of sap line on the sides. Endpin is mgurure or deadwood - just like the fingerboard and bridge

Amazing, Pete! This is a true beauty and will find a loving home. I just wish it was mine!
 
I love the figure in the Acacia wood. Wonderful!

If I played concert ukuleles I'd be sorely tempted.
 
Beautiful uke, with the sound I would want from a concert! Your voice, feeling, and wonderful playing did a honor to that comforting old hymn. Though I am not a religious person, I was a preachers kid back in the day and your rendition was the best I have ever heard. I was tempted to buy that beauty on the spot, but I can't. Someone is going to get a treasure! I hope it sells fast, so I don' t have to think about it.
