Custom Barron River Tenor Ukulele

New. Custom Barron River Tenor Ukulele handcrafted by Allen McFarlen of Cairns, Australia. An incredible piece from one of Australia’s foremost luthiers of custom ukuleles, handcrafting beautiful pieces of functional art for the recreational player and musician alike. Only a handful of instruments are handcrafted each year and his instruments are sought after by musicians and recreational players around the world for it’s beautiful aesthetic and wonderful sound.

This Custom Barron River Tenor Ukulele comes complete with the finest materials and a fantastic pairing of woods that are both aesthetically appealing and sound amazing. Flamed maple wood back and sides with a hand rubbed red stain, the figure in this set of wood is absolutely gorgeous. Paired with a Sitka spruce soundboard, the red stain offers a stark contrast with the natural hues of the spruce.  In addition, this beauty boasts a body design that is slightly smaller than the typical body design for a tenor ukulele, yet with all the projection and sustain expected from a tenor ukulele. A truly wonderful and well-thought-out design. Elegant Barron River reconstructed stone headstock inlay. Nouveau style red gum burl rosette and matching red stained maple wood position markers inlaid on positions 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 15 and 17 with a 12-fret joint to the body. Sapele wood neck for added stability and transference of the vibrations back into the soundbox of the instrument. Indian ebony fretboard, bridge, and peg head veneers. Finished with a beautiful high-gloss polyurethane finish. Australian Blackwood top and back binding add a subtle contrast to the spruce and stained maple wood on the body of the instrument.

Wonderful tonal qualities. Perfect balance, crisp highs and deep and pronounced lows with spot-on intonation as well. A highly sought-after custom ukulele that is very light in weight with a great sound. Highly recommended for both the professional musician and the recreational player #250068
