Martin Style Ukulele Plan

Item Number 1303027

Regular price $17.00

This drawing/pattern is necessary for anyone wanting to build their very own Hawaiian ukulele in the early Martin style. This full scale size drawing gives exact dimensions, shapes for every instrument part, as well as suggestions, for woods to use for building this instrument. Building your own instrument can be very rewarding work, so you will no doubt need this plan. The scale length (VSL) of the instrument in this ukulele building plan is 13.6 inches, and the overall length of the finished instrument is 21 inches. 

The instrument you'll end up building is very similar to a Martin 1K soprano uke from the early 1920's.

This plan is a physical product, printed on paper. It is not currently available as a PDF or download.

Simple Plan with modifications

I ordered the Simple Dulcimer plan. My woodworking skills are moderate, but I was able to adapt it to a shorter fret board that I also got here and use a scroll head. All the things I got from Folkcraft worked and looked good. The bottom, sides and fret board are walnut; the top is cedar. It plays and sounds good.

Teardrop Dulcimer Plan

Wishing it had at least a minor amount of instructions or ideas in the form of a small pamphlet or something. You get exactly what the picture shows (I should have realized that), as a novice woodworker it's overall pretty unhelpful.

Parlor guitar plan

Nice plan.other plans by Scott offer 2 heal options.spanish and dove tail this plan only offers the dovetail. I think I'm going to change it to the Spanish. I like that connection better. Also you called lt concert parlor and the plan says this is to be used with steel strings as it was drawn after the Lion and healy model Columbus. I think I want nylon strings. I have not started the project yet. I'm collecting up some parts and I guess it's my option to change it the way I want. I do like the size of it. I will know more later after I've built it. I do plan on using this plan but I may alter it.

Thank you!
