This electric ukulele is created using mostly recycled timber from various species of tree. Many of the Ukulele parts are created in-house from scratch, eg the bridge control plate, pickups and the neck which are laser cut stainless steel. The only outsourced parts are the electronics and the machine-heads.
The Ukulele’s pick-ups are hand scatter wound on traditional fiberboard flatwork bobbins, and wax potted – meaning they are soaked in hot bees wax – giving them a distinctive tone with no unwanted feedback. Controls are pickup selector, volume and tone knobs.
The woodwork is hand-routed, sanded and spray – painted in-house as well.

The Sound
You can see a demo of the Jazzmistress on YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfwpSTTLgRA
There are several other demo videos on our YouTube channel.
This ukulele is a pure electric solid body ukulele, that must be played through a guitar amplifier. It has a great unique sound that lends itself to being played with over-drive and other standard electric guitar effects.
Strings are regular electric guitar strings. You can use a set of 11’s and add a 13 for a high g or use the fourth string from the set for a low G. You can use thinner strings but the tuning stability becomes less manageable with thinner strings. Thicker strings are also ok. 12’s give a tight feel but 13’s are a bit too stiff. It comes down to personal preference.
