5.0 out of 5 stars Simply beautiful!, January 25, 2010

This review is from: Oscar Schmidt OU7T Tenor Ukulele (Electronics)

After a month of solid use the OU7T has become my instrument of choice. The first thing that caught my eye was the stunning exotic wood grain of the spalted mango body. With the addition of tastefully done inlay and ebony tuning keys I figured this ukulele is either a great piece for wall decoration or a serious instrument. After a quick tuning of the factory installed Aquila strings (best ukulele strings anywhere!) I struck the first chord and realized it was both. The delightful sound from the OU7T is a rich blend of crisp, but not overly bright, attack and mellow sustained resonance that I never expected at this price point. The neck action is also perfectly smooth and without any string buzz even when G is tuned down an octave. I still enjoy the portability of a soprano and shared guitar chord simplicity of a baritone but more and more find the distinct mango wood sound of the OU7T combined with the numerous tuning options of the tenor size make this my "go to" uke. I highly recommend this delightful instrument for anyone wanting a ukulele with superb sound and visual appeal that won't break the bank.

Have had this ukulele for about a month. It's got great sound, easy fretting, beautiful intonation, and it is gorgeous to look at. It also came with aquila nylgut strings, which was a pleasant surprise. These are the best strings in the business and it's nice to see that attention to detail. Great tenor ukulele, I would recommend it to anyone wanting to expand their collection, or start learning this great instrument.

I just got my OU7T this week. Admittedly, I just started teaching myself the uke about 5 or 6 months ago. I was pleased with my Ohana TK-10, but wanted to reward myself when I got better. The beauty of the Oscar Schmidt OU7T was what struck me first, but when I took it down and played it the warmth of tone and ease of play were all that mattered to me. It has many amenities such as the spalted mango body, chrome and ebony Grover tuners, a slightly longer neck, great strings and very well done 'mother of pearl' inlay. After hearing Ukulele Mike on Youtube say that this was his newest favorite ukulele I placed my order, and will not be needing another uke for years to come. I love it! Chicks dig it too. ;)
