Ukulele or a Soprano Boat Paddle

That looks neat

Have you a sound clip?

I’m midway through (could take a while :)

making Gordon my Right Hand Man a

Dulcimer. Curious about the soundboard.

I was thinking Spruce but this looks better

Very cool I like the design.

Spruce would probably be a better soundboard but I had some old SYP and wanted to try it. The top is about 1/8”, the back about 1/4”. I’m developing my luthier skills and this was basically practice. I like to experiment. If the uke turns out to be a hit with the family I might make one of those Grizzly kits.

Here is a quick sound file, apologies for the poor quality, my mic is packed away and all I had is my droid phone. I can’t play yet so this is just me strumming.

Is there no end to your musical side of wood working?

The only musical instrument I ever made was a noisemaker!
