This song and its video took almost three months to make--I had to build the ukulele first!
You'll see that there is also a fair amount of customization, inlays, and abalone neck position markers.

It's an arrangement of the 1917 (public domain) tune 'Rose Room' that features 8 tracks of ukulele along with acoustic guitars and a bass.

Rose Room

The band is me playing lots of uke and guitar tracks, and a BIAB drummer:

Very cool video and nice job with the ukulele. Very different way to develop a song. Well done

Very rewarding building a musical instrument. I have built several kit guitars. Well done. Great tune as well. Rob4580

Ray,
Nice playing and video! It was fun watching building process in fast pace with accompaniment. Last week my wife started to learn couple of tunes on Uke. I have to show her your video, perhaps it will inspire her to play more smile

Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

First time a video took my attention away from the music. Really interesting. Playing was great, too!

Thanks, Rob.
It was really fun to build an instrument from the ground up. I really learned a lot about instrument maintenance and setup in the process, which was one of the goals.

Thanks, Scott.
I definitely cannot do this level of detail for every song! Building the instrument first is a lot of work. Props to all the luthiers out there.

That's so cool, Ray! Great job on building the uke, playing it (sounds great), and what a cool video.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Thanks. I like putting video to instrumental tracks; it's like scoring a movie.
