Scout Ukulele For Sale

Hello Substack folks. This uke just went out to our Scout waiting list, but no one has claimed it yet. I thought I would offer it up to you before I tell the rest of the world about it. Send us an email if you would like to buy it.

These Scout ukuleles are made from shop scraps when I find the time. The waiting list keeps getting longer, so I hope to devote more time to them this winter. Usually they are rather humble, but I went a little farther this time with some special touches. The body is asymmetrical, figured Koa that I salvaged when a wood dealer moved away from my area. The neck is salvaged Mahogany from a cabinet shop. The fretboard/headplate/bridge is some local Walnut. I was inspired by a Santo ukulele I saw in Shawn Yacavone’s collection that even had rope binding around the bridge. Even though mine isn’t that fancy, I added more rope than I would usually do on a Scout. Geared Peghed brand tuners, bone nut and saddle, fluorocarbon strings, wooden strap buttons and a nice gig bag. It goes out to the Scout waiting list today, you can join up by emailing us, info@thebeansprout.com.
