This Lego Ukulele Sounds Pretty Good [Video]

Jesus Diaz ?This Lego Ukulele Sounds Pretty Good It doesn't sound as good as one made of Hawaiian Koa wood, but this ukulele made entirely out of Lego bricks works exactly like a regular one and it sounds quite nice. In the words of its creator, Ross Crawford:

This Lego Ukulele Sounds Pretty Good

Realizing I've never owned a uke, I decided I'd try to make one. But instead of using wood, like any normal person, I decided to use LEGO bricks. Of course, there were some challenges: 1) Shape, 2) Strength, 3) Tuning, 4) Intonation.

The model also had to sustain the tension of the strings, which are tuned to C, F, A and D. Quite a feat. [Brothers Brick]
