Maybe you’d like to play a little love song for the apple of your eye, or possibly plink your way over a
Hawaiian island rainbow. Maybe you’re looking to build your first instrument by hand. No matter what
your motivation, you can play soft, mellow tones on your very own hand-built cigar box ukulele in no
time.
This guide will walk you through the assembly of the C. B.
Gitty “Gittylele” Ukulele Kit. Using just a few basic tools
you will construct a fully playable, great-sounding and
awesome-looking ukulele, sure to be the envy of friends
and neighbors alike. The ukulele is a fun and easy-to-play
instrument with a unique, happy sound, and the one you
build from this kit will provide many hours of musical en-
joyment.
The body and neck of our Gittylele are all made from thin plywood panels custom cut on a high-power CNC
laser machine. This kit was 100% designed in the United States, and all of the wooden parts are USA-made
in our own New Hampshire workshops!
