Solid Mahogany Top Sunburst Tenor Guitar
$299
For the ukulele enthusiast with an interest in acoustic guitar, and vice versa, the Kala Solid Mahogany Top Sunburst Tenor Guitar is the perfect place to start. Our Tenor Guitar is shorter and lighter than traditional tenor guitars, making it suitable for children and players with smaller hands and fingers, as well as for fingerpicking or strumming. This tenor guitar features a solid mahogany top with an earthy brown sunburst finish paired with mahogany back and sides for a timeless appearance and a warm, rich tone. The standard tuning is CGDA, but it holds alternate tunings and open tunings just as well. Each Tenor Guitar comes in a gig bag.
The Tenor Guitar as an instrument has an eclectic and storied past as a specialty 4-string guitar in the bluegrass and folk genres. Popular contemporary players like Warren Ellis and Neko Case have helped to keep this instrument in the public eye.

- GGGreg G.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars5 days agoVery nice tenor guitar!
Though the body is smaller than others, the sound is resonant and larger than my previous tenor guitar. Well crafted in mahogany. But I would also say it would be nice to have a strap button at the neck.
- KWKevin W.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars10 months agoLooks good and sounds good
Looks good and sounds good. For me, this is a keeper. Wish the neck/fret board was a little wider, but not a deal breaker. If you don't mind a slimmer neck/fret board, I would highly recommend this instrument.

I don't have a review for the return insurance because there is no way you are getting my tenor guitar back! The guitar is beautiful and the sound is wonderful. It is also very comfortable to play.
Nice job Kala

Just received my tenor guitar today. It's absolutely beautiful and the sound is superb. Out of the box it only required a little tuning (new strings). I was surprised at the premium gig bag it arrived in. My only issue is putting it down to go to bed. Nice job Kala.

I have three old tenor guitars. I always wanted to have one with a shorter scale. I am very pleased! I like it very much.
