Cherry is a favorite of mine and I think I need to do more to publicize it to customers. It is inexpensive, easy to use, readily available, relatively sustainable, looks great and sounds great. It also darkens and changes over time, offering a unique patina with use. The cherry for this one comes from the Carpenter Ant stash in Portland and was originally cut for grandfather clocks. The pistachio comes from California orchards.

“This beautiful cherry and pistachio banjo uke arrived today. It’s in great shape, and I love the case too. Thank you so much. What a treat.
