I recently finished this wood burned hibiscus pattern tenor uke. Padron box, tambourine jingle tailpiece, poplar neck and toothpicks for frets.

Thank you! It's been a pretty nice playing instrument. Much better tone than previous builds. Not sure what I got right, but I'm happy with it. Action is still a little high, but I've got a set of nut files coming in the mail to fix that.

Nice eye, art, and builds.

That looks awesome Trevor, nice work!

Thanks, all!

Fun project. I'm really happy with it. Sounds the best of four instrument builds I've made.
