Tanglewood Tiare Electro Acoustic Tenor Ukulele TWT17E with Built-In Tuner

Organic Hawaiian nature

...the kind a uke should have. An all-koa build, the body of this tenor uke glistens with its natural grain and satin finish - a captivating, commanding aesthetic for a small gem of an instrument. But the true beauty of koa lies in its enthralling tone. Stunning textures, gorgeously rich harmonies, and crisp articulation are all produced by this Hawaiian tonewood, whilst the perfect balance of warmth and brightness allows for fantastic versatility to suit a range of playing styles. Better still, the more you play the TWT17E, the more your sound will open up, offering a lifetime of authentic acoustic brilliance and endless potential. Koa really does just keep on giving.

A uke that demands attention

Acoustic power stems from the TWT17E's commanding tenor size. And it's begging your spellbinding playing. Bigger than the classic soprano or concert, the tenor ukulele offers a more comfortable playing experience for larger players, and it holds more sonic potential too courtesy of the longer scale. Explore the depth of its full tone, send your sound rocketing with richness and dynamics in its wings, and become engulfed in a performance that goes beyond the capabilities of standard ukes.

Take your sound further

...anything is possible when you have TEQ-TUT electronics at your control. With a faithful pickup, this Tanglewood uke responds immaculately to the properties of koa when it's plugged in, and it will ensure that such magnificent acoustic magic engulfs your crowd. The preamp is easy to use and promises excellent sound projection, whilst a built-in tuner allows for quick, effortless adjustments on the fly.
