We always look forward to hearing from you, and hope you enjoyed the show...
I've been thinking... this would look much better in your hands !
If you want to get one of these into your hands... We'll try to make it easy.
In the case of in stock items, payment in full is required before shipping... I haven't arranged PayPal or other automated payment methods yet, as of August, 2010, so e-mail me and give contact info; I'll call and we'll get it going. First come, first served is a time worn way of doing business, it works for us.
For Special Orders some consultation is usually advised, please contact me and we'll set it up. Better yet, plan a trip to Maui soon, and sit down and play all the ukes we have and then we'll have something to talk about! In general, Special Orders require a 50% deposit before work begins, with the remainder required before delivery. All cancellations of Special Orders requires a forfiet of half the deposit, or 1/4 of full price. Let's hope that never happens... We try to be fair but that doesn't mean that we're fools.
My apologies for not giving my phone on the internet... it just doesn't seem neccesary and it's possibly a bad idea for now.
