My first tenor uke. Didn't like the string tension when tuned high, so this is like a bari uke tuned dgbebut with a high d string.

Thanks Unc and Fatboy!

That's great.  I love that song when Old Crow Medicine Show does it - and this is about the first version I have liked with a single player/singer.   Man, the uke, whistle and your voice work for me.

Thanks to all for the kind words. Been away from the shop for a while due to stuff going on. Feels good to have some new builds and positive feedback.

This ukulele has amazing tones. I have a few high end ukes and they sound no better. Nice song too!

That song and the uke are a perfect match!
