The Kala Premier Macawood T is a really solid choice for intermediate players or those stepping up from a soprano. The Macawood gives it a mellow, balanced voice that's great for strumming chords or fingerpicking, and the build quality is surprisingly good for its price range. It's a fantastic all-around tenor that'll suit a wide range of playing styles.
