That is a beautiful instrument. Ukuleles like this are lifetime keepers. Nothing to improve on with this one, since it is all there.

Cool bridge too. I like that it appears to be made to accommodate 2 different 4th strings.

I like those subtle hollow circle dot fret markers. I was not familiar with this brand / maker. More info please.

Thumbs up More, more, please!
more pictures please, show us a total front and total back.

what is the significance of what looks to be an extra string slot on the saddle?

is there a soundhole on the side?

very nice lines, the binding pops on this.

any soundclips you could post for us to hear?

Interesting, is that a low-G top string that is unwounded? Or, is it tuned differently from GCEA?

Hi guys,

The slot in the bridge is to compensate for a high or low G.
It is an unwound low G.

The soundport functions much like on a guitar!
