I've been kept incredibly busy recently with some interest in Aussie timbers. This one made with some rather extraordinary Blackwood and Huon Pine. Other trim in Indian Rosewood. K&K Aloha Twin is the pickup. Finished in 60% gloss Mirotone.

Hi Allen,

Geez Allen, that's gorgeous!
What's it sound like with the Huon top?

Thanks,
GregL.

No sound sample of this one, but a recent one sent to HMS buy a client who has commissioned several instruments from me and wanted to get my name out to the wider uke community can be heard here.

If this little beaudy is anything like it's over sea's twin, then the voice would be ' Rich, full body sustain, exploding with enthusiasm'. :cl :cl

The'5P Rules' well applied....Tight lines Allen!!!!

Trevor has been posting to YouTube some songs he's written and playing several of the ukes I've built for him. This one of the soprano pictured above.
