I just got an update from Dave Means last night about my Glyph mezzo-soprano. It sounds like we're a couple of weeks from completion. Things are looking pretty good for my "mini-Jake" ukulele. It's been a while since I've bought a uke, and I can honestly say I haven't felt any UAS for quite a while now, but I'm getting a little excited to finally get my hands on this one. After all, it is three and a half years in the making. I guess I got to get going on getting proficient on a new song so I can post a halfway decent video with it once it arrives.
Anyway, onto the pics:
Fine tuning the fit of the neck to the body
Pressing in the frets

Gluing on the fretboard
Gluing on the headstock overlay
Drilling the holes for the tuner shafts
Cleaning up the headstock slots
Ramping the headstock slots
Test-fitting the neck
