J. R. Stewart Company Le Domino Model Soprano Ukulele, c. 1928, made in Chicago, black lacquer with decals finish, birch body, poplar neck. The Le Domino Ukulele is a 1920's classic, one of the more distinctive ukes from the instrument's original heyday. The J.R. Stewart company of Chicago built Le Domino branded guitars, mandolins, soprano and tenor ukes and banjo-ukes in the 1920's, and the very successful brand passed to Regal in the early '30's after Stewart was forced out of business following a disastrous deal with Lyon & Healy. The standard Le Domino ukulele was the best seller, and it's easy to see why. Sold at a moderate price, the uke is well made (though not to the level of quality of a Martin) and very flashy looking. The sleek black finish is highlighted by white binding on the body. Decal dominoes decorate the top below the bridge, and a gold sound hole ring festooned with small dominoes completes the top ornamentation.This particular Uke has the domino decals adorning the fingerboard at positions 3,5,7 10 and 12 and the tiny dominoes numerically show the number of the position.The head stock carries a J.R.S. & Co. diamond logo and a gold script "Le Domino", and has a distinctive carved ledge that was carried on as a feature of many later Regal Uke family instruments. The uke is lightly braced and sounds very good. Overall length is 21 3/4 in. , 6 3/4 in. wide at lower bout, and 2 3/8 in. (6 cm.) in depth at side, taken at the end block. Scale length is 14 in. Width of nut is 1 1/2 in. This uke shows only moderate wear and aging, and the decals are in good condition. The tuning knobs are black plastic and therefore seem to be replaced. The J.R.S. & Company decal on the head stock shows some flaking of the logo and there is a tiny fracture crack starting in the back body near the bottom but it is barely noticeable. It is presently unstrung. No bag or case is included.Shipping only to lower 48 continental states, shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, or International shipping would be extra cost.
