One of my students, Colin Hovland mentioned to me recently that he had built a paddle ukulele himself. I asked him to bring it in to show me and I just could not believe my eyes. Not only was it stunning to look at, but it played like a dream. Colin very kindly agreed to share how he built the ukulele in a little blog which is below. He also let me have a go on the ukulele and you can hear it in action in the video
below.
