Summary:
"It's no wonder that the popularity of the
ukulele
is quickly rising. It's a versatile instrument that is easy to play--yet can also handle complex chord patterns. A good quality handmade
ukulele
has beautiful tone and is a delight to play, but also very expensive--unless you make your own! Inside this book readers will learn how to make two different ukuleles. For beginning woodworkers, a basic box-shaped
ukulele
is included. For those looking for a more sophisticated project, instructions are included for making a professional grade soprano
ukulele
. Detailed woodworking plans, instructions and demonstration photographs are included for both projects. Basic information for
tuning
, setup and playing your new
ukulele
are also included. Sidebars, tips and trivia add personality and a bit of fun to this great project book"--Provided by publisher.
