The 32T belongs to Cordoba's new 30 series, a premium line of boutique, all-solid tenor ukuleles approached from a classical or Spanish guitar building perspective. Most notably, Cordoba is using an integrated neck joint or "Spanish Heel" instead of a traditional dovetail joint to join the body and neck of the ukulele. This method of construction offers a lighter weight and more stable heel joint that increases resonance and is less prone to movement as the ukulele ages. Cordoba collaborated with renowned luthier Pepe Romero Jr. on the 30 series, adopting Romero's vision of building ukuleles as if they are small guitars using traditional Spanish building methods. The result is an incredibly lightweight tenor ukulele with a deeper and wider body, featuring a Spanish heel neck joint, fan bracing, and a wider fingerboard for easy playability.
The 32T tenor uke appeals to the player looking for the darker, and more dynamic tone that is typically associated with solid rosewood back and sides. The 32T also features a solid Sitka spruce top for added clarity, along with a beautiful rosewood bridge and fingerboard. The styling is refined and sleek, using abalone for the inlaid rosette and mahogany for the binding, capped off with Cordoba's signature elevated headstock with a figured acacia overlay. The finish is a gloss polyurethane, applied as thinly as possible for maximum resonance. Other features include a black TUSQ® nut and saddle, chrome Grover tuners, and a Cordoba gig bag.
I bought this used on Ebay last year. It's a great uke but have others that are getting all of my playing time now. New, this sells for $449 plus tax with a hard foam case. I don't have that case but have a gig bag that is functional, but not the best for travel, etc. It does have two nicks along the right edge of the top which are pictured in photos. I also installed snakewood strap buttons from Stew Mac. There is one other very slight issue - on the back there are some very minor flaws in the finish that can only be seen under the right angle. I was unable to get photos of these. It currently has Oasis warm High G strings. It's a great sounding and playing uke and it's a great buy at this price, which is firm. I always sell fretted instruments with a 30 day money back guarantee.
