This ukulele is for Ian, who picked wood from my most loyal supplier, woodfromthewest.com. The curly port Orford Cedar top is from the Oregon coast and the pistachio back, sides, fretboard, headplate and bridge are from California orchards. I paired it with a fir neck made from a Portland floor joist that my fried Chris saved from a dumpster. It has a single nail hole in the end of the headstock. The bird’s foot purfling from Gurian adds a dark streak that contrasts well with the curly maple binding. It sounds big, looks unique and is lively to play.
