    Bill Tapia was known for his flamboyance as well as for his masterful ukulele playing. It showed in the dapper way he dressed, in the customized cars he drove, and especially in his favorite musical instruments.  Bill designed his signature ukulele to be as flashy as he was - but he also demanded that it be elegant.
    No detail was overlooked in bringing this beautiful ukulele into existence.  It strikes the eye with a flourish guaranteed to quicken the pulse of every true ukulele lover. From the gold tuners to the tortoise shell bindings, polished bridge, and fine mahogany grain that lays beneath the "Bill Tapia Red" lacquer, each instrument is uniquely beautiful.
    But the beauty doesn’t stop there.  You’ll also find beauty in the way it feels in your hands, in the way it responds to your fingers on the Aquila strings and rosewood fret board - and especially in the clear resonance of its voice.
    Bill worked on the design of his signature ukulele right up until his death. He demanded quality, beauty, and smile-provoking playability. That’s exactly what he got.
    5 for the red tenor,  5 for the white concert.  Both come with case.
