Sounds great and looks nice too. Ukes are fun to play and build.

The Sleep covers might have to wait for me to build a baritone ukulele. Get them downtuned riffs really goin’.

I’ve had that fretting kit for months, and then one night last week I just decided to finally go for it. I kept thinking about how fret spacing is measured in thousandths of inches, and it was freaking me out. And then I thought, “Yeah, but there’s a template. Just put the lines on the wood in the same place they are on the paper.” And it was fine.

Please please play Dragonaut by Sleep on it lol!  Joking aside, that's a great first uke and fret job.  Fretting isn't as hard as it seems, first time is daunting but after that it's no problem.

She's a beauty. Congrats on your first fret job. I haven't gotten that brave yet.

Well, you know, that’s what I do: I bring an elevated cultural experience to the people. A taste of the Classical arts. Theatre, sculpture, poetry, honking on a kazoo while not blinking my eyes once.

Figuring out bridges is my next quest. I think I get excited that the guitar is almost done, and I end up rushing that last component.

It's good to start my day with some culture.  Fun demo with the kazoo and kazoo face.  Good on yer, Gus.  I like the penny spacer method for bridges.
