I do like the little resonator.
That's a masterpiece.I like the Kiwaya. A classic and timeless design. I've attached some photos of my Martin custom tenor which features Styles 5 and 3 elements.
Nice looking instrument, thank you for sharing!Just got this Twisted Wood koa tenor. Loving the sound and playability so far!View attachment 141999View attachment 142000View attachment 142001View attachment 142002View attachment 142003
I'm guessing that Twisted Wood ordered some OEM or ODM spec guitars and 'ukulele from Enya. This is a pretty common practice among the import brands. Of the the Chinese manufacturers have sought to establish their own brands for long-term sustainability, but many still process orders for OEM and ODM product lines as well. Just a few examples are as follows:And interesting, looks like Twisted Wood got Enya to build them some of their ukes.
Doesn’t surprise me. Did you ever try out TW’s higher end koa 2.0 model? Curious to hear your thoughts on it…I'm guessing that Twisted Wood ordered some OEM or ODM spec guitars and 'ukulele from Enya. This is a pretty common practice among the import brands.

Just a few examples are as follows:
- Supreme Musical Manufacture (in-house brand Snail) supplies OEM to Amahi
- Nantong Sinomusic (in-house brand Aiersi) supplies OEM to a host of brands
- Huizhou Jiyi, the manufacturing arm of Houizhou Enya (in-house brand Enya), manufactures OEM for several brands
Yes. I'll submit a post to the appropriate thread later today or tomorrow.Doesn’t surprise me. Did you ever try out TW’s higher end koa 2.0 model? Curious to hear your thoughts on it…
Those are beautiful! What are the little things under the bridge called? And why do you prefer that to tying on the strings? (if you don’t mind me being nosey…). I’ve seen them before but don’t remember what they’re called or what the advantage is.
I saw him play the middle one at Nicos one night... the hole/blemish/mark on the top looks just like a piece of masking tape in person. I didn't notice the bridge bead/tie things...even though I was about 3 feet away!
Wow! Thank you for sharing. I met Bryan back in 2017, and he was playing that spruce top custom at the time. I did not notice the Baggs Hex pickup at the time, but I'm sure it was already installed.

How are you liking your new ukulele ? It looks and sounds very good from your posts .Those are beautiful! What are the little things under the bridge called?

I like the radius fretboard, the sound, and the overall feel and playability. The intonation is really good and sustain is better than my concert (no surprise there). One thing I’m not huge on but am getting over is the width. At 37 mm it’s the widest one I’ve ever owned. So a few bar chords feel kinda weird, especially higher up on the neck.How are you liking your new ukulele ? It looks and sounds very good from your posts .
The 12" radius fretboard ?
Volume ?
Is the neck / headstock heavy ?
Purdy!My latest ukulele. Cute little soprano.
