2022. Preowned. Beautifully handcrafted and extremely rare full custom ukulele by Joji Yoshida of Okinawa, Japan. Joji’s ukuleles are known for their remarkable craftsmanship, attention to detail and balanced tones with several of Japan’s most famous celebrities and musicians alike enjoying his finely handcrafted works of art.
This beautiful Custom Joji Yoshida Tenor Ukulele exemplifies the Japanese art of simple elegance and lends itself to being both aesthetically pleasing and a wonderful playing full custom ukulele. Joji uses nothing but the finest woods in the world, much of which is a substantially higher grade than what is typically found on the landscape of available ukuleles on the market.
In this instance, the top and back was handcrafted from a gorgeous set of Hawaiian Koa wood top with a faded blue jean stained Bigleaf Maple wood sides. Aesthetically, this instrument is absolutely beautiful! The headstock veneer, fretboard, rosette, and bridge are of stabilized box elder wood, which has been infused with a pigment giving it color. The natural colors of the Hawaiian Koa wood contrasted with the blue Maple find resolve in the artistry of the fretboard, headstock, rosette, and bridge perfectly. Honduran mahogany, Maple & Spanish Cedar neck, adding to the beauty and appeal of this gorgeous ukulele. Professional Rodgers Slotted Headstock Tuners for precise and smooth tuning, these tuners are regarded as some of the best in the world. Gorgeous abalone shell top purfling with matching double abalone shell rosette. Luminlay position marks on the side of the neck for a top-down quick reference. Rocklite binding with African Ebony wood backstop and heelcap. 17″ Scale Length, 36mm Nut Width. Jescar EVO Gold Fret – made in Germany. French Polish Finish.
Tonally, this beautiful Custom Joji Kanda Tenor Ukulele is a wonderful playing instrument with excellent clarity and a wide breath of tones.
