Here is another one. Looks like it needs some work. Buy It Now is too high. Personally, I don't like to see cracks in the top. Can't really fix that effectively. Enjoy.

My friend Jim Mitchell, who is a guitar builder, is recently getting into building ukes too. Here is a picture he posted on facebook of the body bending mold. You may consider contacting him. I am sure he may have some questions for you considering you are a player. Enjoy, Keni Lee

At 4:00am on July 24, 2011, Keni Lee Burgess said…: Thank you Jim for joining my group. Please feel free to write if I can be of any assistance. Enjoy your practice, Keni Lee

At 3:53am on July 24, 2011, Keni Lee Burgess said…: Thanks again Jim for your response. While I was driving out to see Furthur (The Grateful Dead) yesterday in Philly, your last response clicked in my head. I thought it would provide a quick fix for the standard guitarist who wants to play Bottleneck in open tuning, but unfortunately, I see I was mistaken. Thanks for the input. Enjoy, Keni Lee

At 4:33am on July 23, 2011, Keni Lee Burgess said…: Thanks Jim for commenting and clearifying this. I am not sure I fully undertsand. Doesn't it clamp on the 2nd fret? Covering strings DGB? So the 2nd fret acts as the nut? I appreciate your response. Enjoy, Keni Lee
