Ziricote & Spruce Tenor Ukulele

Here's a tenor uke I've had on the go for a little while.

It's ziricote and lutz spruce with maple trim. The fretboard and moustache bridge are in ebony. The neck is spanish cedar.

I kinda feel like all the hard work is starting to pay off.

Cute, like a little old Parlour. Are you growing anything to match that bridge? waxing your ends?

Liam,

That's really cute and elegant at the same time. Love the way you have done the pickguard, it just flows beautifully with the rest of the design.

It not only looks the part, it sounds great as well. I think it's Liam's best instrument to date.
