Crazy flamed koa, even on the fingerboard! Pearl rope-style binding all around. Insane piece.

Nope but that crazy 1920s design is something I'm always looking for.

Jake takes in some pretty interesting items in for work.

Looks like OS was trying to do a K-5.

Sweet.

This one is a K5 on steroids! Jake did a great job on this one. It's got that peanut-body tone which, relative to many other ukuleles, is kind of whimpy but the build and the bling make up for that.
