The Tiny Tenor arrives

tiny tenorI just took delivery of a Romero Tiny Tenor and have spent the day playing it. I read about this in Acoustic Guitar Magazine and bought one on spec to use as a travel guitar. The fact that it’s made from solid woods and the wood choices ticked all the right boxes, spruce top, mahogany back and sides, 17 inch scale length.

I’m delighted to say that it plays extremely well and sounds excellent. In fact I would go so far as to say its the best value pound for pound ukulele I have found to date. The workmanship is superb and the design means that its very small but really projects well and is far louder than I would have expected. It’s also pretty cool looking which is no bad thing. I had this one shipped from Uke Republic – ukerepublic.com who were excellent to deal with!

This is a great instrument for any player and will happily sit alongside many of my more high end custom ukuleles. I think Romero should be applauded for producing an instrument of such high quality at an excellent price point!
