I know, it's not a guitar. But it is really cool IMO, and there will be a guitar to drool over in just a few days. Meanwhile, this instrument seems to be be pretty decent to my not particularly Uke-savvy ear. Like most of my work, the fundamental is very strong and the overtones are present without being particularly shrill. Of course it is only an hour old, so the story has barely begun.

Greg will play it tomorrow as we are double dating to hear a woman mandolinist (whose name escapes me at the moment) at the Freight and Salvage in Berkeley. Perhaps he will have an opinion to offer.
