Nice little podcast from Michigan (Public) Radio on the uke scene in the Water Wonderland. Maybe some old auto plants should be retooled for uke production... Link

Just look at this snail-shaped electric uke. Originally designed for Darby Wilcox of the musical duo O Mello Cello Tree. Baritone scale, hard and soft maple construction.

Made by Celentano Woodworks of Asheville NC.
Feeling sluggish? This might be the ticket! Link
