This instrument is our second for musician/actress Zooey Deschanel. She wanted a baritone uke that looked fancy and had a deep rich sound. No problem. I drew some inspiration from the singing cowboys of Hollywood’s golden age for the inlay and rope binding. Looks fancy to me! The top is salvaged Western Red Cedar from wall boards. The Claro Walnut back and sides and the Spanish Cedar neck are from retired luthiers. The Pistachio is from California Orchards.
