Finished uke, learned a lot! Thanks for all the help.

Papillon is a 14" scale soprano. This is the second fingerboard. Will post photos of first one on wall of shame later! This one is right on and it plays great! Thank you all for your help on this. Hope you like it.

I'm truly amazed at how many skilled people are coming up with wonderful works of art. I'm really inspired, look forward to hearing it or seeing details of how you did it.

cheers
