    Description

    I love the instructions with this violin-uke.  "Tuning to the corresponding tones of a piano, or send it to us by parcel post and we will tune it for 10 cents.  A Violin and Ukelele combined. Anybody can play it.  They all like it.  Made of Violin Wood.  Has a wonderful tone."  The care is dated July 12, 1932.  I must admit it does have a pleasing tone, better than any ukelele I have ever heard and it is very well made.  It is in very good condition.  I see no cracks or problems.  It would need to be turned.  Included are the violin-uke, the instruction card, (which does not say much, and some sheet music.  Original cost in 1932 was .00
    Please look at the pictures carefully as they are a better description that anything I could write.  I use pictures to show accurately the condition of item listed.  I do not try to hide flaws, in fact I showcase anything that I think might be of interest to the buyer.  Sorry for all the glare and reflections.  Use the enlargement feature!  If you would like anything clarified in a picture or a picture from a different angle, just let me know and I am happy to accommodate as best as I can.
    I try and ship within 24 hours and pack as if I expect the package to be drop kicked.
    I double box all glass/breakables!
    I normally use Priority or Fed Ex Home Delivery which ever one works out to be least expensive.  If you have a preference please let me know and I am happy to ship to which ever you would like.  If I have misrepresented anything, it is unintentional and I will give full refunds including postage.  All I ask is that you please be kind and talk to me first.  If for any reason there is a problem let me know and I will make every reasonable attempt to work things out.
    Happy customers are my number one goal.  I do not ship breakables Internationally.  Too many unhappy endings!!
