This is Bill's first Ukulele and 3rd instrument build. I think he hit it out of the park with this beauty. He also had to build all of the tooling for this first build.

I was fortunate enough to be able to purchase it from Bill, who donated all of the proceeds to his son in law who is fighting cancer.

Here are some photos of this little one-of-a-kind beauty. It's Bill's first instrument he ever sold. I can't put it down. It is so much fun to play and sounds so good!

Very nice, Mark. Props to Mr. Hatfield and best wishes for his SIL.
Enjoy the new uke!
