A rare chance to own a wonderful 1920s UB4,
from the legendary Gibson factory of Kalamazoo.
The UB4 has a slightly longer scale length than the UB1, 2 and 3, and is therefore a popular choice for guitarists and banjoists. A very collectible instrument.
This is a lovely example in beautiful condition, with very little wear. A dream uke which will be the pride of someone's collection.
Vintage hard case included. The case is a little worn, and the inside pocket flap is attached with tape. The good news is it contains a couple of spare bridges and a tensioning key!
Check out the video to the right for a demo, description and close-up views!
One thing I forgot to mention in the video: Two of the bolts that hold the resonator on are nickel-plated, as they should be, while the other two appear to be gold-plated! Perhaps they were taken from a UB5!
Otherwise, I think the video tells you all you need to know...

£3750 SOLD! (2025)

Treat your uke to a new set of Brightone strings - highly recommended!
