Product Ref: 91373
The concert cutaway ukulele is the big sister of the soprano ukulele, and built with a slightly bigger body, producing a richer, warmer tone. Unlike other models, this stunning concert ukulele features 19 frets, making it a preferable choice for ukulele soloists. The extra room that a concert shape holds, along with its extended fret range, enables players to perform more technical skills, while still maintaining the classic soprano-like sound of a classic ukulele. The cutaway shape puts challenging chords within easy reach.
Built using ovangkol for the top, back, and sides, with an okoume neck, and a rosewood fingerboard this ukulele offers a superb tone and appearance. Being an African relative of rosewood, ovangkol shares many of the same tonal characteristics as rosewood, making it bright and sonically pleasing. Ovangkol yields brilliant balance with tonal characteristics of richness and warmth, and an incredibly responsive bass section. The result is an extremely warm, bright sounding, well-balanced ukulele.
Okoume is used for the neck of the Tanglewood Tribal Spirit, and can be compared to maple due to their similar tonal characteristics, projecting a light, and incredibly bright tone. Blended with a beautiful rosewood fingerboard, players can achieve a beautiful tone that really shines through especially when using finger-picking techniques. The fingerboard is larger than a standard fingerboard radius, making it easier to play and offering a versatile performance. With a natural satin finish, and white dot fingerboard inlays, the Tanglewood Tribal Spirit really is an instrument of classic Tanglewood quality.
The Tanglewood Tribal Spirit has a factory fitted pickup with an on-board Tanglewood TEQ-TUT preamp and tuner. Take your Tribal Spirit ukulele to the stage with quick and easy set up, or use the on-board tuning feature for perfect intonation.
The Tribal Spirit ukulele is a beautifully designed, well-crafted instrument that reflects Tanglewood's love for quality tone and beautiful aesthetics. In addition to providing you with a beautiful tone and comfortable playing experience, the Tribal Spirit is finished with a full host of ornate details to complete the Tribal Spirit theme. This includes the signature Tanglewood Tribal Spirit rosette design feature situated around the sound-hole, the ABS Ivory saddle which complements the tonewood colour beautifully, along with the white dot fingerboard inlays and chrome die cast machine heads. The headstock features classic Tanglewood hieroglyphs and provides an aesthetic punch with its Tribal Spirit design feature situated on the centre of the headstock.
