I have wanted one of these for a while now and found one in a store in Los Angeles (I am out here for work for a while) . Beautiful instrument and it came with an ebony fretboard and bridge, a one piece mahogany neck, real ebony tuner buttons, and a custom uke crazy like case that is custom fitted to this unusually shaped uke.

The sound from this uke is intoxicating. Very warm but Still somewhat bright too. Couldn't be happier.

Congratulations! I've admired these Mango TT's for awhile although I've never seen one or played one. I do enjoy playing my Koa TT. Wonder how the sound differs between the Koa model and the mango model.
 
Congratulations! There's nothing like a Tiny Tenor!
 
Congrats! I don't have a tiny tenor, but I have a mango Pono. I love mango wood!

well you know how it is with sound comparisons, hard to put it in words. I think it sounds warmer and maybe fuller, whatever that means ...LOL
 
Nice video and comparison. Thanks for posting. All sound great but all a little different.
 
Congrats! Beautiful uke! What store did you get yours at? I got my solid Mahogany TT at U-Space in Little Tokyo.
 
Very cool!

This one has been on my list to consider for a while now. HMS posted a really great sound sample with Kris Fuchigami playing a great Beatles cover on one.

Very smooth, mellow, but clear tone!
