Hi there...brand new to this forum and looking for a little advice.
I'm doing Props on a feature film being shot in Vancouver, BC. Before you ask, I'm bound by an NDA and can't reveal details about it except to say that it is for one of the major studios.
I need to buy 2-3 matching ukuleles that have a very old, or primitive style, as our film is set in the late 19th Century.
Respectfully, I don't want to get into the weeds too much about details. We will be able to do a lot with ageing and paint treatments, but if anyone can suggest a brand or type of mandolin that might be a good starting place in terms of the overall style, I'd be appreciative.
Probably the more basic and unadorned the better.
Oh, another thing worth mentioning is not to be too concerned how it will sound. That will likely be added in during post-production. It's all about the look.
Thanks in advance!
