#516- Mastergrade Myrtle Alto Ukulele

As soon as I strung this one up I realized what I had been missing: an all Myrtle ukulele! It seems like it’s been a while since I made one. It has a classic look and sound to me, as the all Myrtle uke has been a staple of my building for almost 10 years. The grain on this one is particularly interesting and the rope binding wraps it up nicely. The pistachio fretboard and headplate come from California Orchards, the Myrtle is from the Oregon coast and the fir neck is salvaged from a barn in The Dalles, OR.

Everything is great. It plays and looks amazing. It’s next to my bed and I’ve been playing it almost every day.
