This Invictus tenor ukulele has that bombastic nature that all Rebel instruments share. Like their standard range, the sound just seems to eagerly leap out with the smallest of strums or picks with great clarity, and there is impressive clarity when strummed very hard.

Cedar is a great wood to create an even frequency response and a nice warm projecting sound, and the way this instrument has been built maximises the potential of the top to fill the room with sound. The impressive amount of sustain evident is really only achieved by the lightest, stiffest and most carefully built ukuleles around.

So, a proper treat for the ears, and also for the eyes. I have to admit to looking up tabaek when I saw the spec as it is not something familiar to me, but on this uke it looks simply fabulous, with lots of figuring on show to complement the lovely honeyed colour of the wood. Knowing how the wood on the back and sides of a uke helps to shape the sound, I can only hope that tabaek features a little more often in future!

Some of the custom models that come from The Rebel are very weird and wonderful - thinking back to the comma soundholes of the Quark and the dual wood tops of the Particle and Original Fake in particular. So this more traditional looking model was something of a surprise! A very nice surprise, I might add. Pictures show actual instrument you will receive.

This particular instrument was purchased new in mid 2021 and although the original owner loved playing it and enjoyed it, they yearned for a different ukulele and this particular one had to make way. The condition is excellent 9/10, with only a few very small light dinks to the top... Grab a bargain!
