Location: Phoenix AZ | Check out this ukulele. It's made by the same custom luthier that made my baritone. Look at the fretboard inlays, and MAN what a cool halloween bridge. Duane Heilman is the builder and he dones some amazing artistic things. Dave

Location: Phoenix AZ | A banjouke (and a banjo) has to have a floating bridge, otherwise you could not change the head. Everyone I have ever know with a banjo or banjouke has drawn a little mark in sharpie on the head to indicate where the brige has to go. Btw, I know the guy who bought this halloween banjouke. He's only slightly more crazy abut all things ukulele than I am. Dave |
