Reclaimed Walnut and Redwood Concert Ukulele
Reclaimed Walnut and Redwood Concert Ukulele
Hand crafted by Zac Steimle in Washington State
This Ukulele was made with a rifle butt and in keeping with its history a bullet rosette was carefully inlaid into the Sinker Redwood top. Sinker Redwood are logs that got stuck in river beds during the logging boom in Northern California over 100 years ago. Minerals saturated the Redwood, changing its color. This Ukulele features a scalloped fretboard. A scalloped fretboard has a incredibly smooth playability. The fretboard is scooped away to very precise concave, the ridges serve as frets, producing pure and clean notes. Also the scallops allow the action to be lower than on a traditional fretted instrument.
