Thanks Scott for the kind comment. I haven't used the corian for a bridge, but sure could.

Nice lookin uke! I used corian for both bridge and nut on my last build. I'm curious to see how it holds up.

Thanks, reso ukes are cool and that does look really nice.

Derek, it does sound tinny, but not real loud I think due to the size, best not to be touching the tin as well it dulls the sound.

Nice looking build. Does it have a tin reso sound? Ukulele Mike on youtube has lots of lessons and google Dr Uke who has lots of easy songs.

Look at the lessons in the key of C.  Ukes are pretty easy and fun to play in that key.

Comment by Lonman on January 8, 2017 at 5:49am
