ORTEGA NEO: a modern approach driven by German design
Founded in 1994, ORTEGA develops instruments inspired by traditional manufacturing methods, while adding a German-inspired design rigor. The brand emphasizes innovation, multi-stage quality controls, and lutherie choices designed to offer a consistent and reliable experience, regardless of the product range.
For which musicians and uses?
The NEO-U-TGB is aimed at musicians seeking a versatile tenor instrument, equally comfortable at home, in rehearsal, or on stage. Its cutaway is especially suitable for those who enjoy exploring higher-placed chords and melodic lines. Suitable from the motivated beginner to the intermediate, it accompanies pop, folk, vocal accompaniment, and percussive rhythmic playing very well, with the possibility to easily plug in via the onboard electronics.
Sound
The flamed maple top provides a clear attack and beautiful definition, ideal for highlighting the snap of rhythms and the precision of arpeggios. The okoumé body contributes to a balanced output, with present mids and a quick response feel. The maple neck reinforces this impression of clarity and stability. Once amplified, the MagusExpress electronics allow retaining the instrument's natural character while gaining control and playing comfort in live situations.
Recommended compatible accessories
This NEO-U-TGB comes with a gig bag. For any additional accessories (strings, strap, stand), it is advised to check exact compatibility with a tenor ukulele (length and attachment points) to ensure installation without modification.
