Very cool; Dave makes great looking AND Great Sounding Ukes. Mine is one of my best "players". Nancy? Another Uke?

Just gorgeous. I have a painted concert pineapple in the works and can't wait.

I am now the happy owner of the first Talsma uke I ever saw! Dave had this at the Uke Expo in Providence in 2003. This is a soprano with a flame maple body and the flag airbrushed on the top. This uke inspired me to order my Deco concert uke from Dave. What a great instrument!

Love checking out all these pictures - Dave crafts such nice-sounding and great-looking ukes. One of these days I'll work up to a Talsma!

Yeehaw, I recently received ye olde Talsma pineapple with original art by Robert Armstrong (also a member here).

These are pics Dave took; I've been too busy to shoot myself.

It's great, of course: Perfect fit and finish, sweet action, great intonation.

Hopefully I can get the photos to load now...

Very nice Brian!

Of course, your playing is fantastic - that goes without saying.

But wow! Your new Talsma. It really plays in tune and sings out up and down the neck. There are no dead or weak spots (and you surely played every note possible on the neck and on that piece). Every note rings out beautifully.

That uke is only going to get better with time.

And you keep getting more fearless and proficient as time goes by.
