Risa Uke-Solid-Tenor

L'instrument a été livré monté avec des cordes D'Addario blanches de référence inconnue ?! Comment, pourquoi ??? Rien à voir en tous cas avec les cordes "Risa fluoro carbon" brunes (origine Worth) qui sont indiquées sur la fiche produit et illutrées sur la photo de l'instrument. En outre, je doute que les cordes D'Addario soient du même prix que les Worth. Tout ça est très décevant et j'attends toujours une expllication en réponse au mail que j'ai adressé au SAV.
En tout cas, pour le son, je n'aime pas et les cordes ne tiennent pas l'accordage !!!

The Risa Uke-Solid-Tenor is surprisingly easy to hold and play given the odd shape. It seems nigh-indestructible. I would have no worries about packing it in a suitcase as long as I loosen the strings first. It sounds great, and acoustically is very quiet. The overall experience feels more like a solid-body electric instrument even though the strings are plastic. So IMO it occupies a very interesting niche that you don't get even with an electro-acoustic ukulele. For that reason I recommend getting one of these as a serious playing instrument, not just for travel or quiet practice.

I deducted 1 star from quality as there are some VERY MINOR cosmetic issues with the build. The wood on the outer two counterbored string holes (G & A strings) is just slightly frayed. The serial stamped into the back could be cleaner and easier to read. Also a few barely noticeable scratches here and there around the points of contact between the wood body and the metal hardware pieces. Otherwise it's very solid, just as the name suggests.
