Ready to Ship - Brand New Hive Uke: Torrefied Red Spruce/Brazilian Rosewood (US Only)
Here's a chance to jump the long wait on a brand new Hive ukulele. Many of you know that Jake is among the very best ukulele luthiers. His his tone and playability are consistently outstanding. And his work is incredibly clean and beautifully executed. His current wait is way longer than a year, and for good reason.
I actually commissioned this back in late 2017 when I got the opportunity to have the pick of the litter from the BRW he had on hand. It really is a spectacular set. I told him he didn't need to rush it as I wanted him to use a torrefied red spruce top and it took a while to source just the right one. It had to be special to go with this BRW body.
This beauty is finished and is available straight from Jake, who says it has some real bark to it.
Why am I willing to sell? I simply do not play uke any more. So, I'm offering this very special uke to see if somebody wants to grab it. And if somebody does, and really wants to break their bank, they can chat with me about my Hive from The Tree. ;-)
I've attached just a few photos, but here a link to the build photos:
