Listing Info
from the Blue Star Guitar Co. web site
Allen Woody and Bruce Herron co-designed the original Konablaster electric soprano ukulele using these scientific means: The body is a tracing of a canned ham, and the peghead is shaped like a Pineapple! Hawaiian fare at its best! The scale is 14" and is tuned either high G (re-entrant) tuning, or drop G.
One single coil pickup and one volume - simplicity at its finest. The original bridge was the now infamous 30-06 shell casing. This is not intonatable and thus slightly dissonant - just like Woody thought it should be. As ukuleles generally go strapless, we covered the sides and back with Ozite amplifier carpet for Non-slip Comfort. Deluxe models can come with a thru-body bridge with adjustable saddles for spot-on intonation. Std. models still use the empty shell casing - should damage occur, you can still find a replacement shell anywhere in the world! And it's just Kool!
