New Beginners Ukulele - Soprano Uke -
Store Categories Store Categories Item Description The ukulele is a Hawaiian instrument, a 19th century interpretation of the machete, a small guitar-like instrument related to the cavaquinho, braguinha and the rajao, taken to Hawaii by Portuguese immigrants. It gained great popularity elsewhere in the United States during the early 20th century, and would spread from here internationally. Though the Ukulele can be mistaken as a toy or novelty instrument due to its size, it is a serious instrument in its own right; one which comes in soprano, concert, tenor and baritone sizes. This instrument continues this tradition, with a high quality Spruce Ply body - a wood known for its enduring quality, as well as an Eastern Mahogany neck for improved intonation and response to any quick, fleeting finger runs. With these features and a high quality Gloss finish, our Ukulele is an intuitive instrument perect for beginners of all ages, and one that will hold their interest with its high value build quality.
