A fantastic sounding concert-bodied Wonkylele with a tenor scale length, this time in Black Limba. It may look peculiar but it's made to my usual high specifications and sounds great. The askew angle of the neck actually makes it easier to play because the player's wrist is in a more natural position.
This is made from wonderfully patterned Black Limba wood and real ebony bridge and fingerboard. Fitted with tip top Gotoh UPT tuners. Black Limba is one of my favourite woods to work with - easy to manipulate and such a mellow sound!
And contrary to what you might think, my wonkyleles fit comfortably into regular cases (see pics on THIS page).
This was a commission and measures roughly 58cm (length), 18cm (widest width) and 5.5cm (depth).
