#385- Myrtle, Fir and Pistachio Scout Ukulele

This is the second Scout model ukulele I have built, a soprano scale uke with a 7.5” round body. It is an homage to Lyon and Healy/Washburn’s camp ukulele from the 1920’s. The dark Myrtle is a cutoff I saved from when I worked at Mya-Moe, it was the same board as my two main instruments during that time. The neck is old growth Douglas Fir and the fretboard is pistachio from California orchards. It features a beautiful burl in the first few frets that I have been saving for a special project.

Friends Stephanie and Louise decided upon joint ukulele custody of this little gem!!
