    Description

    A beautiful thing: this Cuatro (similar to a ukulele, but not the same) has been hand-inlaid with the colorful wood pattern you see in the photos. It's old and has seen some use, but is still a glory to behold.
    Stand and strings are not included; be absolutely sure to get genuine Cuatro strings for this, and tune them to the correct Cuatro tuning--anything tighter (such as My Dog Has Fleas tuning) will be too tight and damage the instrument.
    The tuning pegs and bridge are new, as this instrument did not have them when I bought it.
    As the wood inlay work is unique, there are NO other Cuatros like this.
    Get it, string it, play it, enjoy it.
