Chena Uke for sale

 This is a curly Myrtle wood and Cedar  Chena Uke, a tenor size with a 17.5 scale length. The neck is a three piece Walnut/Maple/Walnut with a hand-rubbed oil finish, the body is in waterbourne lacquer, binding is Rosewood,and headstok veneer Brazilian Rosewood.
This Uke comes with an undersaddle pickup and has a clear pickguard. Looks and sounds exceptional.
I'm selling it as a Demo-model because thats what it is, it does have some minor dust scratches but otherwise in very new condition. The saddle is Walrus Ivory and the nut is in 10,000 yr. old Mammoth Ivory. I'm selling it  at a discount for a very fair sum...contact me by e-ml........greg
