Kala Brand Music Co. Satin Striped Ebony Tenor Ukulele 1.7 kg

Tenor Ukulele for Richer Tone

The Satin Striped Ebony Tenor Ukulele is built for players who want a fuller, deeper voice than a soprano provides. Its ebony construction yields a warm, resonant sound suited to both beginners and seasoned musicians. The tenor scale length offers comfortable fret spacing for chord work and fingerstyle arrangements. A light maple rosette and binding add visual contrast to the striped body.

Step Up from Soprano Size

Moving from a soprano to this tenor model gives you greater projection and a richer low end without changing tuning. The upgrade is worth it when you need more volume for solo performance or a broader dynamic range for recording. Players who find soprano spacing cramped will appreciate the extra room on the fingerboard. The satin finish preserves the wood’s natural feel over time.

Ebony Build with Comfortable Weight

At 1.7 kg the instrument feels substantial yet remains easy to hold during long sessions. The dense ebony top, back and sides deliver sustain and tonal complexity that laminate tops cannot match. Reddish-brown striping and a satin finish highlight the grain without dampening vibration. It handles melodic lines and rhythmic strumming equally well, though players seeking bright, percussive attack may prefer lighter tonewoods.
