Elegant Looks with Handmade Quality

Cordoba's 30T tenor ukulele sounds fantastic for the same reason that it looks beautiful: premium solid mahogany for the top, back, sides, and sleek, comfortable neck that is topped with a rosewood fingerboard. The 30T is handbuilt by Cordoba who collaborated with Pepe Romero Jr. to create a great playing experience. And the incredible detailing on the 30T, from the rosewood binding to the black button Grover tuners, makes this one ukulele you'll love for a lifetime. For premium playability and great looks to match, choose the Cordoba 30T.

Cordoba 30T Tenor Ukulele at a Glance:
  • Great ukulele tone from premium tonewoods
  • Wider fretboard for easier playing
  • Handmade quality
Great ukulele tone from premium tonewoods

The Cordoba 30T has an organically warm tone, courtesy of its solid mahogany top and back. Mahogany is prized for its combination of warm tone and beautiful looks. The mahogany neck is ideal for optimizing the transfer of energy from the strings to the mahogany body, for a deep and rich sound.

Wider fretboard for easier playing

The slightly wider fretboard of the Cordoba 30T tenor uke gives you more room for playing chords. This is perfect for people with larger fingers or guitar players getting into ukulele. You won't feel as crowded on the fretboard with the Cordoba 30T!

Handmade quality

Every Cordoba 30T is handmade for maximum quality. You can be sure that you'll get many years of joy from your 30T, with tonality that will mature with age.

Cordoba 30T Tenor Ukulele Features:
  • Premium tonewoods combine with expert craftsmanship for a ukulele that looks as great as it sounds
  • Solid mahogany top, back, sides, and neck for a warm, organic sound
  • Elegant looks with great playability
  • Comes with polyfoam case
Get great sound with the beauty of mahogany, with the Cordoba 30T tenor ukulele!

Great ukulele!

This is my second ukulele and first in this price range. Of course it arrived in perfect condition from Sweetwater; thank you Logan for assisting on the order.

The wood looks great and the case (included) is top-notch. Great sound. Happy customer!

Excellent quality Ukelele

I received Ukelele in mint condition and the setup was top notch - this instrument is for players (neck is wider and easier to play if you're a guitar player like me) - also the tonewood is excellent and this Ukelele sounds/projects like a dream - the instrument came exactly as described and the pictures are exact to this instrument - lastly my sales engineer Cameryn Wright provided 5 star service (as usual) and communicated with me directly to make sure all of my questions were answered - thanks!

The Cordoba 30T 30 Series Tenor Ukulele and me

I have had my Cordoba 30T 30 Series Tenor Ukulele for about a week now. I agree with everything that all of the other reviewers here on Sweetwater have already said. The Cordoba 30T 30 Series Tenor Ukulele is absolutely beautiful. There is an obvious quality and sound difference between this Ukulele and all of the other Ukes that I own. This is my first solid wood Uke and I now have a hard time playing the laminate ones that I own now as the sound in this Uke is so much better.

In appearance the glossy polyurethane finish over the solid mahogany is flawless but does attract finger prints. The Grover tuners are great and adjust smoothly. The frets are completely smooth. The bridge is flatter and wider than any of the other Ukes that I have. While I really like the flatter neck on this Ukulele the wider fret board is kind of a problem in that I now have to concentrate on where I plant my fingers to avoid buzzing. I chock this up to me and my Ukulele getting to know each other.

The sound of this ukulele is fantastic it has a beautiful resonant sound that is hard to describe. Perhaps those of you who are used to solid wood Ukuleles know exactly what I am speaking of BUT it almost hums. It sounds fantastic.

I purchased this Ukulele for myself as retail therapy in the middle of the pandemic, sight unseen, based on reviews, construction, the reputation of Cordoba, and Sweetwater's amazing sales and service team. Ben Kelly is my sales guy and he knocked himself out for me. Because of the level of service and the quality of this Ukulele I am his and Sweetwater's loyal customer.

More Than A Pretty Face

The more I play my Cordoba 30T Tenor Ukulele, the more I love it. I had it strung with a low G, and the resulting tone is rich and full. Just what I was looking for. I've played (fingerstyle) more expensive ukuleles that couldn't deliver half the mellow tone that this tenor uke does. An added benefit is that it's just so darn pretty. I'm very glad that my Sweetwater salesperson suggested I look at this uke after I THOUGHT I knew what I had wanted. Thank you, Mir, for your expertise!

A perfect set up with a flawless fit and finish...and it sounds GREAT.

I've had my share of ukes from $30 to $2000 and this one has an action that is amazing. The perfect string height at the nut and 12th fret which makes it so easy to play. Oh, and with a 38mm nut width I can make my chubby fingers do what's needed to make some difficult barr chords that I simply can't do on an instrument with a narrow (35mm) nut. I wasn't too keen on the strings that came with it and changed them to a Pepe Romero low G set. Playing jazz with a pick it's very close to my Kanile'a premium if you can believe that, and strumming without a pick it has plenty of volume and sustain. It's very impressive for a uke in this price range and in my opinion, you would be hard pressed to find a better similarly priced tenor (and I've had a bunch of them). It's very light and has a gloss finish that is as perfect as you can get regardless of how much you spend. Top it all off with a VERY nice polyfoam case and you have one hell of a bargain and a top notch uke you can be proud of. I used to play classical guitar and had a couple of Cordobas and was always impressed with their sound and ease of play. This 30T embodies all of that knowledge into a well designed and executed Uke. Bravo.
