Sweet little uke. Tidy job you did here, congrats! :cl
The somewhat big headstock makes it look even smaller. :D

That's a small one you have there! :lol: :lol: Nice job and some nice Qld Maple you've used. Is the headstock a 'standard' for you? To my eye it just needs to be scaled down a little to make this the perfect little Uke. :D

Thanks for you comments. Yes it is my standard shape. It doesn't look to out of place in real life, although I have been thinking of shortening it up between nut and tuners.
