Hello all.
The Albany crew are still getting together. A few pics of some completed instruments. If you want more images of anything in particular, let me know.
A flat pack uke from John
Peters Uke. Big Leaf Maple from the inimitable Tim S
Fan fret Baritone from Maurice
December 2013 we decided to have a show and tell for local instrument makers. A fantastic day that was very well attended and exceeded our expectations. People could talk to the makers and have a play. Late in the day instruments were showcased by some local players.
Umberto ..... a maker from Denmark WA and a view of some of the intruments displayed
Maurice
John and a sample of his ukes
Thanks to Alan Warburton who instigated the whole exercise and was the one who started us off about 7 years ago. I did not get a good shot of Alan and his instruments. He is camera shy.
All instruments have been made within that 7 year period.
Regards Peter
