Steven Sproat – aNueNue Signature Model

Added: Apr.21, 2010, under News

Steven Sproat is considered to be one of the UK’s finest ukulele exponents. He has developed his own style over 38 years of playing and has performed extensively in the UK and abroad including some prestigious venues such as Ronnie Scott’s, the Mean Fiddler (London) and the New York Ukulele Festival.

We first met Steven on YouTube, and we are shock by both his music and playing style. We then got Steven’s DVD and learn the basic strumming, triplet stroke, Hawaiian stroke, finger picking, thumb roll, split stroke, fan stroke, Flamenco stroke and chord inversions. A must have DVD for ukulele fans.

The design on Steven’s uke is a very challenging task for us. Steven is a patient British gentleman, we took several month of communication, and more emails than you can imagine. We finally end up with the vintage style inlay on the fingerboard. Inlay is 120% hand cut mother of pearl and inlay into the rosewood fingerboard. The rosette is blend of wood and abalone inlay work. We did a special twist inside the box to accommodate Steven’s heavy strumming style.
