Even bad-asses dig Ukuleles!
Just to prove it, there's an article about Ukuleles in this months edition of 'Gitarist' magazine.

About Me

I'm one half of the duo, The Uke Box together with Marko van der Horst. I sing, play the Singing Saw, Ukulele and i'm a bad ass on the Washtub Bass. We perform internationally, host 'The Ukulele Jamboree' in Rotterdam and are the founders of 'The Big Damn Ukulele Band'. Further we run 'The Jumping Flea Market' together, a little shop specializing in Mostly Musical Wonders & Curiosities.
www.jumpingfleamarket.nl Music is also the greatest inspiration for my other art & craft passions such as Cigarbox Instrument Construction, Graphic Design, Painting and All-Round Tinkering.
This blog is my little showroom where i display my work and present various projects with personal items of interest thrown in between. I hope you enjoy your visit. If you like what you are reading, seeing and/or hearing here and are interested in employing my talents or just have something to share, i would love to hear from you.

Hi Gals!
Thanks for stopping by.
Looking forward to reading your blogs!

Yes I saw Guitarist in the UK was giving away a ukulele if you took out a years subscription. I've moved onto making a mountain dulcimer now,I never seem to master one type of instrument before i start making another!
Hi Andy!
That is a very interesting give away for a guitar magazine.
Good luck with the mountain dulcimer. I own one that was made by a maker in north Mississippi. It was given to me but i must say that i don't really play it. They can be beautiful though. Good luck on your build. I'll be looking out for it. : )
