This ukulele was designed and started in early 2007, and is the second of the MAKAIO ukuleles to be made with all Australian tonewoods. I expect to finish this ukulele in late 2008.This ukulele will have a traditional fan braced soundboard with a ladder braced back. The soundboard will be built with a 25 ft radius domed profile, while the back will be built with a 15 ft domed profile. The neck will be designed as a standard length with a 12th fret body connection, and will be reinforced using a carbon fibre stiffening rod.
