This instrument is for Jeremy, who has #333 and #666 and now #999. It has some unusual features that I am excited to show you. It is a five string ukulele, with a high and low g in a single course. That makes it play like a regular uke, but you get the high g and low g sound. To accommodate this, I used the old headstock shape I got from a Dias instrument in the Bishop Museum. This led to using Peghed brand geared tuners to complete the old fashioned look. When I do this, I can also curve the back of the headstock, like many of the original Madeiran makers did. At the bridge, the doubled strings are held in place with a little brass pin and some shallow slots in the bridge. I saw this detail on some old taro patch ukuleles. Jeremy likes to have clear plastic pick guards on the top, which are barely noticeable unless you are up close. It has a K&K pickup, ready for the stage. For the decorative details, I made a large rope rosette and matching engraft. This compliments the star inlays in the fretboard, which came from the classic tarot card drawn by Pamela Coleman Smith in 1909. The curly top, back, sides, fretboard and headplate all come from Oregon, courtesy of woodfromthewest.com. Thanks for your continued support, Jeremy!
