Essential Information About the Kala Striped Ebony Tenor Ukulele



  • Premium natural look: dark brown ebony with reddish veins, enhanced by a satin finish.

  • Elegant contrast: maple rosette and maple purflings that highlight the wood's depth.

  • Comfort and stability: mahogany neck paired with a rosewood fingerboard for a pleasant grip.

  • Intonation and attack: GraphTech NuBone nut and saddle for effective vibration transmission.


Striped Ebony: a signature aesthetic in the Kala spirit


With the Striped Ebony series, Kala emphasizes lutherie with an organic feel: dark tone, pronounced grain, and satin touch, for an instrument that breathes authenticity. The maple details (rosette and purflings) add a bright and modern touch while enhancing the ebony's sobriety.


For whom, and for which styles?


This tenor format is aimed at musicians seeking more ease and presence than a soprano or concert: ideal for progressing, working on right-hand precision, and gaining comfort on the neck. Versatile, it suits both chord accompaniments and melodies and arrangements, from pop-folk to reggae, including more percussive playing.


Sound


Ebony provides a quick and defined response, with a clear attack and excellent chord clarity. The satin finish allows the wood to breathe and promotes a more "natural" feel to the touch. The GraphTech NuBone nut/saddle pair contributes to intonation, clarity, and a more even vibration transmission, particularly appreciated on arpeggios and melodic lines. Strung with Aquila Super Nylgut, the instrument offers comfortable tension and a warm character while maintaining precision in articulation.


Recommended compatible accessories


To preserve the original feel and balance, a set of Aquila Super Nylgut strings for tenor ukulele is a reliable replacement option. A clip-on chromatic tuner is perfect for quick and discreet tuning. A gig bag is available as an option from the manufacturer.
