Here is a Soprano Uke I recently finished:
Honduran back, sides and neck, rosewood fretboard, ivoroid appointments Grover tuners (not crazy about them) flat nitro finish .
She sounds great-I am lovin' it! ;

Sweet. Very classy and that ivoroid peghead looks very old-timey

I use the cheapest guitar tuners and they work well for me. I have to use a thicker head veneer to limit the exposed post height and to bury the second hole in the post.

Since my ukuleles are given away, low cost leaves me free to build what I want.
