Written by an expert luthier, this thorough guide to making a ukulele from scratch is uniquely presented in the style of a graphic novel. Clear and detailed instructions throughout the book are accompanied by vibrant watercolor drawings, giving you the sense that you’re reading from a woodworker’s personal notebook rather than a manual. Complete with patterns, tool lists and guidance on materials and woodworking techniques, this book takes you step-by-step through the anatomy of the ukulele and how to build, finish and string a working one of your own. When you’re ready to play your ukulele, the book includes a chart of chords to get you started.
