That's a really fun looking little twanger. Nothing like strings on a plank.
Would you be willing to build another, that pulls out to a baritone scale length? I'm interested, if you're willing for a commission.
Hi Daniel,
I was just looking over your pictures.
You have a lot of really memorable instruments.
Very inspiring.
Keep up the exceptional work.

Thanks for lookin'. I've checked out your ukes. They are of course big here in Key West. The "World Famous Green Parrot Bar" hosts a Uke Night once a month with how to play, and some great performers. I'll locate their web cam link and post it...
Thanks it is my first;-)
Good: Cool and fun little instruments. I will probably try some. Inventive and well done. Like the fast motion photography.
Bad: You put too many videos up at one time. Spread them out. You knocked a bunch of player's videos off the main page. Their videos will go largely unnoticed because you flooded the main page.
