While I await a video from my son and his friend I thought I would post a few pictures of the latest uke which I mentioned in my introduction. Blackwood body, spanish cedar neck, cocobolo fingerboard, maple, walnut and padouk rope binding, rosewood bridge.

Thanks for the comments, guys. You grow some awesome woods. I have enough to make another uke like that and a spruce topped one also.
