Kala Solid Body Electric Flame Maple Tenor Ukulele

The Kala Solid Body Electric Flame Maple Tenor Ukulele is made with the performing musician in mind. Amplifying a ukulele, or any nylon string instrument, has always been a struggle. The warm acoustic sound of the ukulele is so easily lost by too-bright piezo pickups. Just when we were about to give up hope, along came this electric tenor ukulele from Kala – with a feedback resistant, solid body, and an active EQ. Whether you’re playing Sol K. Bright or Jason Mraz, this uke gives a true and mellow sound even at stage volume. With a quick playing 18 fret neck and a simple, two knob control layout, even players new to electric will feel at home with this instrument. This uke is currently strung with a low-G string set.

Body: Flame maple top, okoume back, sides, and neck

Neck: This uke has a fiber composite fingerboard with white dot inlays, a scale length of 16.875”, a 1.375” nut width, and 18 frets – meeting the body at the 14th fret.
