Terris guitars delight both beginners and professionals. The main material from which they are made is linden - it is particularly resistant to temperature changes and to the effects of other external factors. These guitars are not only the most budget-friendly, because the cost of some models starts from 3,000 rubles, but are also very convenient. Miniature models will be a great companion on any trip. Unfortunately, there are no perfect and cheap tools. Terris guitars have their drawbacks - not the best sound quality and strings that are located too far from the neck, which makes the task a little difficult for the beginning guitarist.

Ukulele is another type of musical instrument produced by Terris. There are 3 types of ukulele - soprano, concert and tenor, which differ from each other only in length. It can be from 55 to 70 centimeters. The soprano is easier to pinch chords than the Concert and Tenor, due to the fact that the latter two have tighter strings. Complex compositions on the ukulele are almost impossible to play due to the lack of frets and their width. The main advantage of Terris models is convenience, while the main disadvantage is the sound. Its breadth and sound is not as bright as, for example, on a guitar, but for beginners this will not be a major problem.For them, there is always a small tutorial in the kit. The body of the models is wooden, based on linden and maple.
