I won this really cool ukulele on french ebay.

It's from the 20's, made by Jonah Kumalae, one of the greatest uke makers of that time.
My friend Cyril met his son, who is now about 100 years old. He told him that he decided to stop the manufacture of his father in the 40's, because he prefered playing baseball...well, at least, playing baseball was easier with the wahines...
Anyway, he still plays the uke well
