The Riptide Series ECUT-5BK Tenor Ukulele is an Acoustic-Electric instrument with a Cutaway and all Mahogany construction.
Boulder Creek’s exclusive “Dual Port System” projects the sound to both the audience and the player. Simply moving the front sound port away from the centre of the soundboard has resulted in a noticeable increase in volume, tone, and sustain. Die cast tuning machines and perfect fret leveling make them stay in tune and play easier than ukes costing much more.

Riptide ECUT-5BK Gloss Black Finish Tenor Ukulele Review
Deluxe Ukulele, Greate Sound, Absolutely Beautiful !!
Some product reviews :
The inlay and finish are beautiful, the binding and rosettes around the top and side sound holes are neat and clean and the black finish is deep and super glossy. The tuners are excellent quality with smooth, sealed gears and attractive black ebony colored buttons. The nut and bridge are neat and well crafted out of a synthetic bone material, not cheap molded plastic, and the intonation is excellent. The frets are one of the highlights of this uke, not the frets themselves, but the attention to detail during their installation, not a sharp edge, high/loose fret on the neck! The electronics are very good as well, but the kicker is the built in tuner! So convenient I now want one on all my ukes.
It’s a beautiful looking instrument and it sounds great. Overall, there are no complaints anywhere. Doesn’t stay in tune so well, but other than that it’s great.
Great uke sounds expensive. it has beautiful inlay. i love the tone of this ukulele!!!
