Woah!
Those dudes must be smoking some pretty strange stuff over in Santa Cruz! No doubt bored of making bongs out of apples, Etsy user ‘klayne’ has come up with the idea of making a Ukulele out of a gourd!
“This is not a toy! This unique soprano ukulele is built with a body made from a hollow gourd. You’ll look long and hard to find another one like it.
Besides the gourd body, this uke features a 13-5/8-inch scale, the same scale length used by Kamaka for its classic instruments.
The top is redwood; the neck is poplar; the bridge is rosewood; and the fingerboard is oak.
Ukuleles are extremely popular these days and becoming more so. You can own this unique example for only $185.00 plus $20.00 shipping. Or – pick it up in Santa Cruz, enjoy a day at the beach, and save the shipping charges.”
Whats next, a double bass made out of a Pumpkin?
(In all seriousness, Sitars are traditionally made from Gourds, so its not that wacky an idea)
