Standard Soprano Ukulele
In their heyday Martin produced some of the simplest yet classiest instruments ever known to musicians. The soprano ukulele was one of them: they just got it right! Every single one of these that I have ever built has turned out to be a killer. Whether it is made from mastergrade koa in the 0 style like this one here or covered in bling, the effect has always been the same - a little humdinger of a ukulele. Although not a faithful copy - the body is an eigth of an inch shorter than the Martin pattern - I stick to the high construction principles made famous by the Martin company in the 20th century:
I believe that these three things make for a perfect ukulele. My clients also agree... As usual, you get a cellulose lacquer finish to complement the fine woods used and I build everything from a Style 0 to a 5K (look at our bling page). Starting price is £425 or $850... |  |
