The RU22T is part of Alvarez?s "Regent" series, designed to offer excellent value for money to learning musicians. Its design focuses on stability, ease of tuning, and careful craftsmanship to provide a motivating instrument that supports progress from the first lesson to rehearsals with friends.
Designed for beginners and intermediate players, this tenor suits those who want more space between frets and better projection than a soprano or concert ukulele. Perfect for vocal accompaniment, steady strumming, and simple fingerpicking, it adapts well to pop, folk, chanson styles, and Hawaiian standards.
The laminated mahogany construction delivers a warm and balanced tone, with singing mids and soft highs. The tenor format offers greater projection and a more generous sustain than smaller sizes, while maintaining excellent clarity for strummed chords. The 17" / 432 mm scale length (string vibrating length) promotes intonation, while the open-gear tuners stabilize tuning during tension changes.
To get the most out of your RU22T, choose ?tenor? string sets (nylon or fluorocarbon), a ukulele capo, a clip-on chromatic tuner, a hard case sized for tenor 26" / 660 mm for protection on the go, and a neck strap suitable for ukuleles without strap buttons.
