The Laka Tenor Electro Acoustic Ukulele has been crafted with a Sitka spruce top, the ultimate soundboard for strikingly crisp articulation. Every note you play will be deliciously defined, carried with sublime dynamics. It's the kind of sound that belies the small nature of the uke. You'll then have koa back and sides. Koa originates from Hawaii and its voice delivers the perfect blend of warmth and brightness. The result? A ukulele that stays true to its Hawaiian roots whilst giving you flexibility to practise a range of playing styles.
Versatility, projection, smooth playability. They are all offered by the tenor shape. Larger than classic soprano ukes, the tenor size offers a comfortable playing experience with incredible freedom to explore a range of playing styles. And its sound is bigger too, granting you stunning, full-bodied tonal capabilities with exceptional volume and clarity.
There's a reason Fishman is counted on by musicians worldwide, and with the VUT80E, you'll immediately come to see why it's so popular. The Fishman Sonitone preamp has been expertly mounted within the soundhole in order to preserve the natural acoustic aesthetic of the uke. It's well-concealed but exceptionally easy to reach, so you can sculpt your sound quickly before and during sets. Plug in, amp up, and let the tonal qualities of spruce and koa reach their full potential.
