Port Orford Cedar grows along streams in the valleys of the Klamath Mountains. Port Orford Cedar is pale in comparison to other cedars, with a fine, tight grain, making it strong and lightweight with excellent tonal qualities — a preferred wood for stringed instruments. Our Port Orford Cedar Top Elite comes with Hawaiian Koa back and sides in a satin finish, specially combined to create a ukulele that sounds bright and is also simple and elegant in style.
Comes equipped with Kala custom chrome tuners with black buttons and Kala Elite Brown Fluorocarbon Strings by Worth with Low G. Each model comes in a Kala Elite Archtop Hard Case with a plush interior and includes a D’Addario® Humidifier Pro. Preferred by professional musicians, the tenor adds a warmth and depth to the classic ukulele sound.

I was a little nervous ordering this ukulele online without playing it but it was totally worth it! This uke sounds beautiful, loud, bright and has a wholesome tone to it, not to mention it is absolutely gorgeous! The shipping was really fast and it came in a beautiful Kala elite hard case. I would definitely recommend this product!
Beautiful workmanship.

What’s not to love?
The Port Orford Cedar tenor is a special instrument to play. It has dynamic range and clarity. There is also a warmth to the sound without being too boomy. Also had never tried the Worth strings that came on it - nice sound and feel and also appreciate the wound low G for this uke. Thanks Kala - you nailed it!
