Description

Once thought of as a novelty from a bygone era, the ukulele has made an astounding rebound in popularity in recent years. The adoption of this diminutive 4-string instrument by many of today's popular artists has introduced the uke to a whole new generation of fans and created a legion of contemporary enthusiasts. While capable of producing beautiful, sophisticated music, the ukulele is also a very accessible instrument. With only four nylon strings, it’s easy to play and a breeze to learn.

The UEWT5 is a Tenor size ukulele with a cutaway EW style body to allow access to the higher frets (Tenor ukes are larger than both Soprano and Concert models). The body (top, back and sides) is made of mahogany and sports an open pore natural finish, which optimizes string vibration and enhances the instrument’s sound. The UEWT5 also includes a beautiful abalone rosette, a rosewood fretboard and Grover open gear tuners.

    This is a gift for a young child. I ordered instruments costing twice as much but the orders were canceled after a couple of months of backorders. I needed the instrument in time for a birthday and this is the only one I could find without jumping up to the four to five hundred dollar level. I wish there were more quality instruments available.

    I just received my ukulele. I ordered it because I already have an Ibanez open pore parlor guitar which I love. Just unboxed, the item is defective and dangerous. Ibanez must not have quality control this instrument because the edges of the frets are razor sharp. It is unplayable. Now I have to go to my local store ( my expense and time) to return and try to reorder. It's not Guitar Center's fault. They're great. I hope/expect, lucky me, I got a bad product and the next one I get is playable.
