Custom Moore Bettah Ukulele – ‘Gecko’ inlay. Beautiful custom tenor ukulele handcrafted by master luthier Chuck Moore of the Big Island, HI. Chuck handcrafts some of not only the most aesthetically pleasing ukuleles available on the market but also professional recording level instruments for both the professional musician and recreational player.
This wonderful tenor ukulele is crafted from gorgeous Hawaiian Koa wood top, back, and sides, macassar ebony fretboard, bridge, top and back binding, end graph, heel cap and headstock veneer. The neck is carved from Hawaiian Koa wood as well. The soundboard has an elegant black-white purfling and abalone shell inlay for classic appeal.
Gorgeous Hawaiian gecko or Mo`o inlay of shell on headstock. Paua shell fretboard position markers on 5, 7, 10, and 12. Jet black Grover geared tuners for elegant, smooth, and precise tuning. Ebony wood nut and bone saddle. Lacquer high gloss finish.
Rich and complex tones with excellent sustain, clarity, and projection. The instrument is very well balanced tonally all the way up the neck and spot on intonation as well. This one was made a few years back for a ukulele camp over on the Big Island. The uke has been re-fretted and buffed by Chuck prior to it being sent my way. Itʻs absolutely gorgeous and plays like a charm! Highly recommended player piece. And this is as good as it gets!
