Jingu amulet [神宮札] inlay

Every year, I visit Ise Grand Shrine and Izumo Grand Shrine with my family. We go there to pray for good health and peace throughout the year. The shrines are the head shrines of Japan's ancient gods and symbols of Japan. I inlay them into the center of the fretboard of the ukuleles I make.

Diamond inlay

This is an interesting experiment where he compared six soprano ukuleles, all with the same strings and high G tuning. He played six ukuleles in various styles: one belonging to Chris's wife, one given to him by a friend, one made by a British builder "Wonder Comer", one by an Italian builder"Marco Todeschini" and two Ancestor's. The Wonder Comer  ukuleles  have a sound that is mainly suited to the musical style of George Formby from the 1920s, while the Ancestor's  sound that is suited to songs that mainly feature chord solos in the Ohta-san style. Ancestor's  have a clear chord sound, so if you listen carefully, you might be able to tell which ukulele it is. Please give it a try.
