African Blackwood Gypsy Jazz Tenor....commissioned by Daniel Hernandez
A Gypsy Jazz Tenor Ukulele on its way to its new owner, Daniel Hernandez. A beautiful instrument with a voice to match.
Made in the likeness of Maccaferi/Selmer Gypsy Jazz Guitar
Back and Sides are African Blackwood, one of the true Rosewoods and unique in that it is Black in the shade, but when in sunlight it lights up with chocolate and gold hues. Extremely dense making for great acoustic instruments, rare and highly sort after.
Soundboard is Adirondack Spruce, a fantastic tonewood.
Neck is a very nice piece of Curly American Maple with an Ebony Spine and is fitted with dual action adjustable trussrod.
It has a custom made MiSi/K&K internal battery-less preamp. The best of both, K&K Soundboard Transducers married with MiSi Preamp Technology.
It has a saddle height adjustable Ebony Bridge. thanks to Vern Brekke from 'Bridger Products'.
Tuners are German hand engraved Rubner with Rosewood buttons.
The 'Gladstone Guitars' insignia are out of reconstituted Brass.
The Tailpiece is handmade and hand engraved from 1.2mm Brass, it has been Gold Plated by Queensland Electroplaters to an electrical instrument coating thickness, which will keep it looking its best.
