The Rebel Q series has done it again... For a decade now; Rebel have produced concept instruments in extremely limited numbers. These instruments are all unique with underlying themes such as changing one wood combination or the position of a soundhole. The never ending search for improvements in the sound and feel of a ukulele is a big mission of Rebel's. The 2024 Q series is named 'Neri'. We took 3 of the dozen or so available on launch.

This concert ukulele has a wood combination of spruce and mahogany with figured marrango wood used for the neck and various accent woods used all around. The placement of the trio of front soundholes on the underside of the soundboard with an enlarged side port at the top of the shoulder of the uke make for a very loud ukulele with a very evenly dispersed sound. The ukulele is fantastic for fingerpicking with every little nuance in the playing coming through perfectly. The potential of this ukulele is staggering.

The Rebel logo is inlaid in the back of the headstock with this series getting a unique offset headstock shape. It feels like a masterbuilt instrument, soundwise and feel wise it is very 'Rebel' but also reminds me of premium South Korean luthier OulCraft.

We also need to talk about the gigbag which is a fluffy version of the standard Rebel gigbag... I've been doing this for 16 years this year, I've never seen a fluffy gigbag before and I love it! It's definitely an acquired taste though!
