This is going to be an interesting one-off project:
My customer has some redwood from an old picnic table that his grandfather built in the early 1960’s.
The piece he sent me has some really tight vertical grain, and will make a great sounding soprano.
We are going with a teardrop soprano body and a concert scale neck.
The ukulele will be all-redwood; top, back, sides, and neck. The neck will have a walnut centerpiece for stiffness. All pieces were cut from the same board, and you know how that improves the tone.
