Original hardware (note photos for wear and tarnish)
with the exception of the vintage tailpiece and replacement tuners.
New UK-sourced vellum, Aquila strings and vintage bridge.
The tuning pegs were replaced at some point and the holes enlarged for larger shaft tuners.
I’ve replaced those other tuners with more appropriate ones, also larger shafted.
This b-uke had a resonator and possible flange at some point. Plays and sounds great.
