Romero Creations Tiny Tenor Mango  PARTICULARS SIGNS  Tenor    Solid mango top   Solid mango back & sides  Mahogany neck  Ebony bridge & fingerboard  Designed by Pepe Romero & Daniel Ho  Nut width :35 mm  Bone nuts  Pepe Romero US2 strings with Low-G wound  Abalone rosette  High Gloss Finish   Scale Length : 432 mm / 16 frets   Softcase included L'AVIS DE LA CASA  This Tiny Tenor Mango is perhaps the most beautiful mango ukulele we have ever had in our hands! Look at this top, it is sublime. The concept of the Tiny Tenor is to give you the same pitch and playability of a tenor ukulele but in ultra compact proportions, thanks to a reduced headstock, body design and bridge placement. The neck is thin with a flat profile, despite its width of 35 cm the strings are well spaced and the most complex chords are played easily, this ukulele is really made for a play in arpeggios and picking. It is in the sound that the Tiny Tenor reveals all its splendour, the mellowness of the mango tree is associated with a long and full substain, and offers an open and rich sound with a lot of amplitude. The bass, aided by the metal-spun low-g of the Pepe Romero UT-200 strings, is amazingly round and yet precise. Very highly recommended
