As many of you know, I don’t use much tropical wood. When I do, it’s either salvaged wood or wood from a trusted sustainable source. Even though Mango is a common ukulele wood and we used it a lot at Mya-Moe, it just hasn’t been available under the above conditions to me. This summer, Perry and Dani brought me some end tables that were basically blocks of mango wood made from tree trunks. I split them, sawed them and found many ukulele sets and some neck blanks. I figured I should do a test and remind myself what it sounds like. I think it’s warmer than Myrtle but brighter than Koa, with a sweet and traditional voice that sounds familiar to me. I paired it with a Pistachio fretboard, headplate, bridge and rosette. Some curly Maple binding wraps it up. I have plenty of this, including curly, spalted and Mastergrade sets, so drop me a line if you want it on your next uke. I can switch this instrument to
low g or add a pickup if you are interested.

This stock instrument is available for $1900 plus shipping, and it includes hard shell case. A pickup can be added for $150.
