Your 8-string tenor uke arrived this morning, and it’s simply wonderful!
I have always appreciated craftsman-made things and your 8-string tenor lives up to my expectations in every respect. It is superbly made, well-finished with excellent attention to detail. Even little things like the ends of the frets being gently chamfered to give it a smooth feel as my left hand moves along the neck. The wood grain is brought out by a high-gloss finish and the cream-coloured edge binding is enhanced by a black-white-black decoration, which finishes it off beautifully. The sound hole rosette in mother-of-pearl glows in the sun.
The sound is bright, full and responds well to different types of strumming; a pleasure to play and to hear.
All-in-all this is a lovely instrument which I expect will give me years of pleasure!”

My new Noah Eight string tenor Ukulele arrived on Tuesday and she is absolutely beautiful in looks, tone and sustain. The Action is perfect, as is her finish. There is a type of “warmth” that seems to eminate from the wood. And I don’t think I’ve ever played any of my Ukulele’s so much in one sitting – and as a friend of mine had commented when he showed me his Noah Ukulele, “When you handle and play a Noah instrument – you will never want another make” and now I totally agree with him.
From the quality, to the service and delivery – you could not ask for more for a handmade ukulele at a very affordable price.
