All Solid Satin Mahogany Tenor Ukulele
$229
We’ve taken our Classic Satin Solid Mahogany and given it a modern update with an even more affordable price. The warm reddish brown of the Solid Mahogany body is framed in clean black binding and black & white purfling. Coupled with a stylish white-black-white rosette pattern—there is no doubt that this is a refined musical instrument.
This ukulele also comes outfitted with a Rosewood fretboard and bridge, D’Addario Titanium Strings, and a smooth closed pore satin finish. Take note, this instrument is for players who understand the sonic characteristics this uke has to offer, and are ready to grow along side it as the solid wood improves even further with time. To quote Acoustic Guitar Forum, “Mahogany starts out good and just gets better as it ages.” Mahogany is a classic traditionally warm sounding wood that many ukulele enthusiasts prefer.
Available in Concert & Tenor.

- EBEugene B.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars1 month agoFine solid wood instrument
Nice smooth satin finish. Dark wood is attractive. Narrow and slim neck OK with me. I like the black pegs and brass finish open tuners. Sound is good and will open up. Action OK but I had to file down the nut which was too high for such low frets. Fine now. Not a big fan of Titanium strings. Their "carbon" strings would have pleased me more.
- MLMarion L.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoLove this KALA SMHT Tenor Ukulele !!
My new Kala solid mahogany tenor Ukulele (KA-SMHT) arrived today. I absolutely LOVE it !! The solid mahogany is a huge improvement in sound over wood veneer. I understand that with solid mahogany, the sound will improve even more as time goes on. Love the deeper tone and wider frets, compared to my concert. Thank you Kala for a very fine musical instrument that is going to bring me great joy.

Beautiful instrument. Great tone and easy to play - nicer than my Martin and half the cost
- LFLeo F.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 weeks agoMy wife commandeered it
I unboxed it, tuned it up, and played a couple tunes on it, and my wife said, "can I play it?" That was one of the few times I got to play it. The only thing smoother than the beautiful satin finish on the solid mahogany body is the honey sweet tone. The action is easy and intonation is spot-on. Overall a joy to play. And for the build quality and wonderful sound, it's a real bargain.

It’s great! The finish is a little darker than I thought it would be, but the construction is well done, and it sounds great!
