#737- Alaskan Yellow Cedar and White Oak Tenor Ukulele

This AYC top came from neighbor’s shop, left over from when he made flutes. It inspired me to make an all domestic wood instrument with the muted color palette I like. The White Oak is from the Carpenter Ant stash and the AYC neck is from Camp Westwind. A mix of Myrtle and Walnut was used for binding and bridge, which complements the amber tones but fits in the palette. And the sound! I always love Oak for back and sides, but this piece of AYC warms it up a bit.
