Lyon & Healy Washburn Style 701 Soprano Ukulele Uke

Here is a lovely Lyon & Healy Washburn Style 701 soprano ukulele. It was made circa 1923 in Chicago and is in amazing shape! It features a very clean original natural finish, a mahogany body and neck, and a rosewood fingerboard. 

This wonderful ukulele features an ivoroid bound body with Washburn's patented "smile" bridge. It also has an ebony saddle, an ebony nut, and a dot inlay pattern in its rosewood fingerboard, with a celluloid kite inlay in the headstock. It also still has the unique ivoroid sound hole ring that often goes missing.

Overall length 21 in. (53.3 cm.) 
Lower Bout: 6 1/2 in. (16.5 cm.)
Body Depth: 2 1/4 in. (5.7 cm.)
Scale length: 13 3/4 in. (349 mm.)
Nut Width: 1 5/16 in. (33 mm.)

This lovely uke is in amazing shape! It shows only the most minimal signs of use. If you are looking for something a little less standard than a vintage Martin, this would be a great choice. It has a unique and wonderful voice, great tone, and strong projection.
