Hello Guys,
I bought a nice Ukulele with a little problem.
The two back pieces (solid wood) are separating and there is a small gap all along the back of the instrument.
I heard that is happening mainly because of dry and shrinking wood.
Since the top is not sunken in ( and if, just very slightly) and the fret ends are not very sharp I'm not so sure if humidity caused this.
How would you repair it? (Glue, technique, etc.)
Would you first try to hydrate it?
