I am building resonator uke. I have Gretsch G9112 ukulele and I open it to see how it is done. There is a cone which is probably made in China. I decided to use National's cone. I could buy Chinese, it is much cheaper, but I trust National's more. When I hold them in my hand I feel the difference. National's is much lighter and thinner. I weighed them and Chinese is almost three times heavier. I belive it means a lot to sound too. I will see (or hear) it later. Do other builders have experience about that?
