Frequently Asked Questions
The solid acacia top provides a warmer, more resonant tone with more low-end presence than many all-laminate tenor ukuleles.
The 35mm nut width is a bit wider than many tenor ukuleles, offering more string spacing which can be more comfortable for players with bigger hands.
The matte finish doesn't significantly impact the tone but it does affect the feel and appearance; it's less glossy and more natural-looking.
