Premier Exotic Macawood Concert Ukulele
$179
Known also as Macacauba and Granadillo, Macawood has a growing reputation in the instrument world as a lively and spirited tonewood choice. Macawood hails from Central America, where it has long been called “the wood that sings,” and can be found growing today throughout Guatemala, Nicauragua, and El Salvador. With tonal qualities similar to Rosewood, Macawood’s density provides a long sustain, overall responsiveness, and smooth bass overtones. Visually it is wild and fun, trading off chestnut and chocolate browns with an interlocking grain that all pops under our Premium Exotic high gloss finish.

I’m an intermediate level player, and recently attended the Tampa Bay Ukulele Society Getaway. After purchasing several raffle tickets, I put them all in the box for this KALA and I won! It’s my second KALA brand ukulele and I cherish its wonderful workmanship and mellow tone.
A new ukulele player can start with KALA and grow their skill set through professional and always have a quality instrument on hand. You can depend on KALA quality…

The laminate body is nicely grained, excellent durability and projects a full warm tone. The beveled armrest is a nice premier feature, which provides a comfortable playing position.
