behold the power of the almighty GOOGLE!

searched for "kukalele flying v plans"

 

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:299

http://donsplans.com/viewitem.php?productid=7 

both have plans available for flying v ukes.

 

ukulelehunt has some reviews of this style of uke as well.  worth reading.

now, i didn't look to check the scale lengths.  but i'm sure it's mentioned in those plans somewhere.  

hope this helps or directs you somewhere that can.

Thanks, I don't care what they are called. I would like to make an acoustic/electric

version of the Gibson Flying V in minature for a little girl, so a plan that I can

modify slightly to give it more of a "flying V" shape is what I'm after. I think I

will make it in the concert scale size, as the soprano is pretty small for this

shape.

 

Any suggestions or pointer by any one will be gratefully appreciated.

My friend got one of those in Tahiti when he was a kid in the early 60's and he said they are actually called a Kukalele (kook a lele) see if that helps in searching them out. I'll ask him where his is and if he has it I'll measure it and shoot the dimensions over!

These appear to be the soprano ones?

I woul like a longer fingerboard and V body..so I'm thinking that maybe the

next uke size up would be what I'm lookin for.
