<p>This has got to be the Mother of All Cocolele&#8217;s! Over the top as far as cocolele ukes go.If anyone has any info on this please let me know. I&#8217;ve never seen anything like it, and I&#8217;ve seen alot of ukes. Its obvious they were going after a turtle shell look for the back with the coconut shells. The scale length is almost tenor. Neck is curly Koa . Im not sure what the top is but its not Koa. It might be Mango or Monkey Pod. I have no idea who made it and there&#8217;s no label. The only possible identifying mark is an arrow head etched on the headstock. <a rel="lightbox[2010-0-3-8-6-0]" href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_zBwVSywf0hE/S0y_nA7Ei-I/AAAAAAAAE_U/a-tFvw-jSXo/IMG_1710.JPG?imgmax=640"><img class="pie-img" style="margin:10px 10px 10px 10px;" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_zBwVSywf0hE/S0y_nA7Ei-I/AAAAAAAAE_U/a-tFvw-jSXo/s144-c/IMG_1710.JPG" alt="IMG_1710.JPG" width="144" height="144" /></a>Pretty great collectors piece.Ill post more photos later as take it apart for restoration.<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/chargtr/Cocolele#">For more photos click here</a>.</p>
