KoAloha KTNP-00 Naupaka Solid Hawaiian Koa/Mango Tenor Ukulele #0318_no3

£909.00 £757.50

Sometimes instruments arrive here which all make us gasp a little bit. These beautiful Naupaka ukulele are those instruments.

The half koa, half mango wood design is not just a cosmetic gimmick, although it looks absolutely astonishing - Koa is used on the bass side to give the sound power and richness (which is in the KoAloha DNA in spades) and Mango is used on the treble side to give that beautiful, peaceful, floaty sweetness that Mango is good at. The resulting sound is extraordinary, probably a little more restrained than the all Koa models but in a good way; the natural flamboyance and character that you expect is still there in abundance, but perhaps with a little more poise and refinement.

Worth CT-LG Low G strings are fitted on this model, which really help to bring out the warmth in the low end of the instrument. If you want a high G string, then please let us know.

In the hand, there is nothing finer - lightweight but solid body, very slinky, sensuous feeling neck - and on the ear you'll struggle to find something more pleasing!
