Kala’s KA-STE (Spruce Top Tenor w/Pick up Uke)
Hmm… an ukuelele, and it’s not koa?! This is Kala’s KA-STE Tenor ukulele. Features a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, cut-away (for you shredders), and built-in pickup! If you look at all the best acoustic guitars in the world they’re not made of Koa (indigenous to Hawaii, well it’s actually not… but that’s another story… shh!), they’re made of spruce! It’s because spruce has nice sound characteristics. Compare this spruce top tenor to the Koa, Mahogany, and others… you’ll notice it’s a touch brighter than the rest. I like it! In the end it’s all personal preference, but I prefer spruce for ukes
