Rare! 1920s Sterling 8 string concert taropatch

[rbeetsme]

Rare 1920s Sterling 8 string ukulele. Great shape! 1 longtime solid repair on back. Similar to period Martins but with floating bridge. This bridge won't pull up! New Worth strings, very nice collectable, plays well! I've never seen another one. US$525.00

Do you have a price in mind?

 

[Uke man]

yes, curious minds would like to know your price.

possibly a picture of the fretboard string height from the nut to the bridge or the end of the fretboard.

Thanks, and good luck with your moving inventory.

Any chance of a sound bites? Esp, up the neck.

 

[rbeetsme]

Sure, if I can figure out how to post it here.

The binding and rosette looks like this was made by Regal. I have seen that on a number of their instruments. Very attractive.Good luck with the sale

Regals premium brand. Tonk Brothers era.

I agree this would be useful information (and to be honest, not addressing it once it was suggested probably makes potential buyers more leery of potentially high action).
Very pretty uke! It would match my Wendell Hall Redhead nicely. 8^)

It has a floating bridge. That can easily be adjusted for string height. I like it where it is, low action but not buzzing.
