'Oli X2-TMH-SH All Solid Mahogany Tenor Ukulele w/Gigbag

The X2-TMH-SH is part of a new limited edition X braced series from 'Oli. Aimed at intermediate/professional musicians this tenor ukulele is light in the hands, resonant and with incredible sustain and colour to the sound. The reinforcement in the top makes for a thicker, tighter and more compressed traditional bottom end sound on your ukulele.

Andrew Kitakis along with his famous team at Ukulele Site in Hawaii have been designing and refining the range of ukuleles for several years already. Present company included; there is really nobody more in tune with what makes a good ukulele that players can bond with. 

This fresh addition to the X-2 range features a handful of our favourite features that we have seen from existing X-2 models, the side sound port, comfort edge and through bridge for example, but with the noteable update of a beautiful slotted headstock.

What you can see at first glance is the side mounted fret markers popular on many ukes from brands like Flight. They give you a visual clue as to where you are playing on the fretboard without the need to tilt the instrument towards you. The nut is wider at 37mm with a nice wide string spacing and a modern, smooth C shape to the neck which curves well with the natural curves in your hand. The new headstock is fitted with ol' faithful Grover Sta-tite tuners for precision tuning.

The mahogany used for this particular model is stunning select tonewood from Indonesia and it is gorgeous. It's easy to be desentised to mahogany at times, but visually the X2-TMH-SH grips you, and when you start to play, holds on tight. It's poised, punchy, vibrant but balanced, and the very best of what mahogany has to offer.

Finally, the choice of factory strings is the Uke Logic 'Oli Fluorocarbon Gold alloy Low G's which are a pitch perfect choice for this tenor, highlighting all of those wonderful tonal characteristics in superb harmony with the tonewood itself.
