Though a less common choice than its traditionally 4-Stringed siblings, Kala's lovely Solid Cedar Top 5-String provides its players a sound that is slightly reminiscent of a 12-string guitar, due to the additional string, which can be tuned to suit (many players choosing to go with an extra A or G-string). Cedar has gained in popularity as an instrument material, due to its soft, lush acoustics - this model features Acacia back and sides with a Padauk rosette and binding. The Solid Cedar Top lends well to finger-style playing, and resonates with a gorgeously mellow tonality. This beautifully-crafted 5-String Tenor Ukulele features an unbeaten tone, and a slightly larger range, performing with the presence of a slightly larger instrument. A great purchase for a musician with previous Ukulele experience, the extra string provides a wider spectrum of chords that players are sure to enjoy! The headstock features Kala's iconic branding, as customary.
