Premier Tonewoods and Lively Tenor Performance
With Ibanez’s rich history of acoustic excellence, it should come as no surprise that the company applied its decades of industry mastery to the world of ukuleles. This ukulele's spruce top, and paulownia back and sides offer exceptional projection, while the okoume neck imbues your tone with a maple-like warmth and brightness. Up top, the 19-fret purpleheart fingerboard matches the spruce’s natural projection with fantastic sustain and crystalline articulation. At Sweetwater, we’re continually impressed with Ibanez and its commitment to premium appointments on every instrument, and luthiers at Ibanez spared no effort in designing and constructing this ukulele to meet the same exacting standard of craftsmanship.
