I recently came across this 1920 Weymann soprano uke. You don't find these around too often. These were made in Philadelphia. It is a very nice quality well built instrument of lovely mahogany. It is pretty much the same dimensions as a Martin, but with some subtle differences. It is in lovely shape, other than a small chip out of the sound hole. I spent some time cleaning it up and putting it into shape. The wooden pegs work very well.
It has plenty of ring and that classic "bark" that you hear in instruments of this era. Volume and projection is exceptional with nice note separation and it sounds great fingerpicked or strummed. Intonation is good up the neck, which you will notice has dots at 5,7 and 9.
Since I have a nice Martin from the same era it is probably a bit redundant to have both as they are so similar. I'll see if I hold onto it, but it is a lovely instrument that is a lot of fun to play.
