As unconventional as a Saddle Pal rosette may look at times. The bracing is not so unconventional at all.
The double sides are maple finished with a Celtic pattern in keeping with the rosette.
We use a special algorithm to select all our tops for the perfect density and stiffness. We carefully measure the Young's modulus, density, and longitudinal resonant frequency of all wood we are considering as guitar tops.
The weight and resonant properties of koa seem to work extremely well for our Saddle Pal model.
A long laborious process of listening and measuring the spectrograms of the various modes of vibration of the guitar is done to achieve final voicing and determine final port sizes.
And of course, in the end, it all has to look nice!

We feel Honduran mahogany gives the best combination of bark and sweetness for the perfect ukulele sound.
These ukuleles have almost exactly identical specifications, however, they are different sizes. One is the popular concert size, being slightly larger than a soprano uke. The other is a tenor, the next larger size up from a concert. Price -Tenor $799 - Concert $699
This instrument has solid Honduran mahogany back, sides, and neck. It has rosewood binding, peg head overlay, fingerboard, and bridge. It has geared Grover ukulele tuners with black buttons. Bone is used for the saddle and nut. A cowgirl pinup is on the back. These images are very durable. However, these images are also easily removed for anyone who just prefers a plain mahogany back to the graphic. A hardshell, green velour lined, faux alligator case is supplied with the instrument. Photos of the details of the instrument and case are included.
Unlike our guitars and Gitjos which are all made in Texas, these ukuleles are made of imported parts, and only partly constructed by us in an effort to keep their price low. However, the quality of the uke and its sound is high.
