They sound beautiful. Here is a link of me playing my 8 string mango. Not quite the same sound but mango is mango IMO.

The file is large so give it a couple of minutes to load.

I have the same uke and I like it for its sweetness, but it's a more modest tonal range than cedar or spruce and not as resonant as either. Beautiful looking, though.

I changed to a Tusq saddle and Aquila strings and the combination made the mango sound better, IMHO. More sustain, better harmonics.

I sold one of these recently and I almost regret it. I was in a bind at the time though. Just want to say your price may be a pit high, sold mine for 400 even to dentuke in peron.

Really lovely uke though, sounds crisp.

I just sold it on Ebay. However..... I thought I had it sold before and the buyer bailed. So... don't close this listing yet. No cash in hand.
