She is beautiful! My Tiple arrived sooner than expected, so I was pleasantly surprised. I adore this instrument as she sings clear, bright, and with a nice sustain. The craftsmanship is excellent, eveyone compliments its appearance and sound. She will be a perfect little sister to my cuatro and guitar. My son who plays a ukelele has taken a liking to it and getting him involved playing traditional puertorican music with me and his uncles would be nice. Thank you, Luthier Frank Cruz & Maribel, for my lovely instrument, and for making Tiples available as living in the states it is difficult to find one.
