Hi guys,
I just got my Mele concert and I noticed something interesting. The body is kinda taper up, not like a parallel square.
Lol I’m not sure if I express clearly. Please see the photo.
Do all their ukulele have this type of body? I hope it’s not wood shrink or some sort.

The back taper towards the upper bout is not an uncommon design. However, it's more often seen on steel-string guitars than classical guitars and 'ukuleles.

Hmmm interesting. I never had one like this.
