That would be 38 at the nut. Is that actual nut length or is that outside to outside of the strings?
My latest tenor is 35 mm nut length (zero fret) and 27.5 mm string O-O (Four strings).

What does your plan call for? If you don't have a set of plans, i believe Hana Lima Ia has pineapple uke plans. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 |
