Meet Your Newest Stringed Obsession
The UEWT5 Tenor Ukulele is an example of Ibanez's dedication to impeccable craftsmanship and standout performance. This nylon-stringed ukulele has a sapele body and a harmonically complex Tenor shape. Although it's commonly used as a substitute for mahogany, sapele is an excellent tonewood in its own right. It has a warm tone, fast attack, and finishes with a tasteful treble zing. You'll appreciate the smooth playability of the okoume neck and purpleheart fingerboard.

Like the Ibanez UEWT5, tenor ukuleles create a deep and harmonically rich tone that's great for tracking. This uke's cutaway body is super comfortable to play and gives you complete access to the upper frets.
