Not only did we learn a lot during the building process, but we also did some things a little differently, and this instrument turned out incredibly well (most likely not because we changed something).
Considering its small size, the volume is outstanding and the sound is amazingly full and, well, just good. So this little lady became an almost constant companion, on trips and to Alex's guitar playing, recently replaced at most perhaps by her slightly larger but younger sister "The Wannabe Tenor Ukulele".
