Ukulele Tenor APC TMX Lateral Mouth

The APC TMX tenor ukulele is a tenor ukulele for musicians looking for a more immersive sound, with a modern design and a different concept.

Manufactured by the prestigious Portuguese brand APC, the APC TMX tenor ukulele stands out for its construction in solid koa, a wood of Hawaiian origin that provides a warm, deep and rich sound, in addition to offering an authentic and attractive look to the instrument. The most notable feature of this ukulele is its side soundhole, an aesthetic feature that enriches the instrument. This design directs the sound projection towards the musician, allowing for a more immersive and direct experience.

The APC TMX has a solid koa top, back and sides, a wood widely used in the construction of ukuleles in Hawaii. This choice gives the instrument a unique timbre, balanced between deep bass and crystal clear treble that stands out especially in live performances or recordings. Furthermore, the open pore finish maintains the naturalness of the wood, allowing the sound to resonate more freely and organically.

The ukulele's neck is made of mahogany, a wood renowned for its durability and stability. Mahogany offers excellent playability, providing comfortable and smooth handling. The African black wood fingerboard adds not only beauty to the instrument but also strength, making it a perfect choice for players who value both aesthetics and functionality.

With solid construction and high quality materials, the APC TMX is a ukulele that offers great longevity, resisting wear and tear and maintaining its performance over time.

The tenor shape of this ukulele is particularly appreciated by musicians looking for more volume and a sound with greater projection. With a larger resonance box than the soprano and concert models, the tenor ukulele is ideal for musicians who want to explore a wider sound spectrum, with well-defined bass and prolonged sustain. The side soundhole adds a new dimension to the playing experience, allowing the musician a greater perception of the sound.

Founded in 1976, APC is one of the largest and most respected manufacturers of stringed instruments in Portugal. The company, which continues the Pinto Carvalho family's century-old tradition of luthiers, combines artisanal techniques with modern innovations to create high-quality instruments. APC not only masters the art of building traditional Portuguese instruments, but also applies its knowledge to ukuleles such as the TMX, guaranteeing a product of excellence.

The APC TMX is a perfect instrument for experienced musicians looking to elevate their level of musical expression, or for beginners who want an instrument that inspires them. The APC TMX is a safe choice, combining tradition, quality and innovation.
