A stunning-looking and fantastic-sounding concert bodied mango Wonkylele with a tenor scale length. This is my 50th ever ukulele so I thought I'd pull out the stops and use this wonderful wood for it.
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 beautifully textured mango was given to me by a ukulele friend and is nicely set off by the stripy sycamore neck. Real rosewood bridge and fingerboard. Fitted with fantastic Gotoh UPT tuners and fluorocarbon strings.
And contrary to what you might think, my wonkyleles fit comfortably into regular cases (see pics on THIS page).
It measures roughly 58cm (length), 18cm (widest width) and 5.5cm (depth).
