Beautiful job on the build and the playing, wow!

I used the standard CB Gitty ukulele strings. 

I don't have a lot of experience with resonators so I really don't know what strings sounds best.

Nice tone and playing.

Thanks Jim,
At first I wasn't happy with the sound but after I replaced the threaded rod that came with the biscuit a new snug fitting oak saddle it sounded much better and I got alot more volume.
