Great links, Brenda.

I like the discussion of neck stiffness, reinforcement, and neck materials at:


www.ukuleles.com/Technology/neck.html
www.ukuleles.com/Technology/woodprop.html

There are many other articles on glues, bracing, etc., indexed at:

www.ukuleles.com/Technology


Good reading during a blizzard, when you don't have to go to work.

Thanks. They have studied ukuleles like no one else. There's always enough time in the day to see pictures of mode pattern tests.
