This is number five in a growing collection of ukuleles, all tenors but each different.The uke hasa very smooth satin finish and is nicely completed. Surprisingly light compared to Snail and Kala that I have, but well balanced. The 38mm nut is easy to play and it has an incredible sustain. Swapped out the g string for a low G and I think this has added to the tone, but everyone has their own preferences. Great volume from 6 strings.
