Finished up this little Standard Size Fuente Uke. Has a Mahogany Neck, Wenge Fretboard, and Piezo Pickup. Still needs a proper setup which I'll do after Thanksgiving...
I love making guitars from Cigar Boxes, and thought it would be fun to create a blog for those interested in tracking my progress, and see what's going on in the shop. If you are a potential customer, feel free to email me with any questions. Enjoy Life Through Music !!

Cigar Box Ukes
This pair of Ukes is almost ready. All I have to do is make bridges for both, and basically string them up. They both have Piezo Pickups, so can be played acoustically or electric. The Ashton is a Concert Uke, and the Punch is a Tenor Uke. Hopefully will have them finished next weekend, and on my Etsy site for those interested. These are numbers #93 & #94.

Uke Necks Done
Finished up the 2 Ukulele necks I've been working on. I have some traveling coming up, so these will need to sit for a couple of weeks. Getting close though!

Making Progress on 2 Ukes
Just a dry fit for now, but you can begin to see what these 2 Ukes will look like, The Punch has a Purpleheart fretboard, and will have brass corners all around. The Ashton has a Bobinga Fretboard. The box will still open on the Ashton when it's done.
