The Tanglewood Tiare TWT31 tenor ukulele brings a unique twist to traditional ukulele design with its eight-string configuration. By doubling the strings in pairs, this instrument produces a rich, shimmering sound that adds depth and harmonic complexity to every performance. For players looking to expand their tonal palette, the TWT31 offers a bold and inspiring alternative.

Crafted with a mahogany top, sides, and arched back, the TWT31 delivers warmth, resonance, and projection in equal measure. Mahogany is known for its balanced tonal character, combining a woody richness with clarity that suits both strumming and melodic playing. The arched back design enhances volume and sustain, ensuring the instrument’s full-bodied voice carries with presence and authority. Paired with Aquila Nylgut strings, the doubled courses ring with choral-like overtones, perfect for adding texture to solo performances or ensemble work.

Visually, the TWT31 carries the natural elegance of the Tiare series. The satin finish highlights the grain of the mahogany, while the maple and mahogany rosette provides a tasteful decorative detail around the soundhole. Chrome die-cast tuners offer precise tuning stability, essential for the doubled-string layout, while the smooth mahogany neck and Eboncore fingerboard ensure comfortable playability across the tenor scale.

The TWT31 is designed for adventurous musicians who want to explore new sounds while staying rooted in the ukulele tradition. Its expanded tonal range and unique voice make it an excellent choice for performers, songwriters, and collectors alike. Whether used to create lush accompaniments or to add sparkle in a group setting, the Tanglewood TWT31 offers a truly distinctive ukulele experience.
