Just before Christmas we announced the Millar Jumbo Tenor as one of the top 10 Ukuleles of 2021 and promised 2022 would be Millars year. That was in part because we have several small batches of custom shop Millar Ukuleles in the works for this year. The first one focuses on the Southern Ukulele Store (and particularly Alex's) love for Mango and the unique, full bodied and suprisingly articular sound you can get from a Millar Jumbo Tenor body. The unofficial name for this batch of custom models has been the Millar 'Pilikua' which loosley translates to Grand or Jumbo in Hawaiian. Eric at Millar built these using a special batch of 5A Hawaiian Mango which as you can guess is basically the good stuff! It's highly figured and intricate to look at with tighter grain and a warm, bubbly and rich sound not unlike Koa but with a smoother, more pronounced bass response. We have learned a lot about Mango from working with Kanile'a on the Manako series, Flight on the Carabao and Big Island on the Uli so choosing the right wood is about so much more than looks but when it has the right sound and looks like this - well, that is just heaven. We have found some of the best sounding Millars have had satin finishes, in part because this more traditional style of finish allows the wood to really shine through and although visually I think slightly more people prefer gloss it is important to match the finish with the size and wood and these Millars are fine tuned to give just the right sound and overall shape for a strummer who wants to cover the whole frequency spectrum or a finger picker that just wants to make people swoon. The decorative choices were made by Matt Warnes at World of Ukes who has joined us on this voyage with Millar. Several instruments have been made with mixtures of bindings and soundhole rosettes but none of them detract away or distract from the frankly stunning presentation of the Mango itself. The Ukuleles are topped with a slotted headstock which is just a touch more lightweight than on the production Millars we stock. The slotted headstock adds just a hint more tension to the strings pulling them back at a tighter angle and the lightweight Gotoh machineheads are a personal favourite of the staff at SUS and World of Ukes. We strung one with the Ukes With Alex Rotosound Low G strings and it sounds bon magnifique and the others with Worth Browns are magic too.
