Kala 15S Satin Mahogany Ukulele with Hawaiian Island Laser Etching
Category: koaloha ukulele
The Kala KA-15S, Kala's most popular ukulele model, has become the industry standard for an entry-level ukulele since its introduction to the market in 2005. Prior to this time, the options were either cheap toys or expensive, custom-made ukuleles. The KA-15S, with its laser-etched Hawaiian islands, has made the ukulele accessible to everyone, providing a high-quality mahogany instrument with a warm, full-bodied sound at an affordable price.
Kala has expanded the 15 Series to include a variety of models, such as the Soprano Black (KA-15S-BLK), Soprano Long Neck (KA-15SLNG), Soprano Spruce Top (KA-15S-S), two models with Hawaiian Tattoo laser etching (KA-15S-H1 & KA-15S-H2), and the traditional mahogany instrument now available in Concert (KA-15C) and Tenor (KA-15T) sizes. Kala's focus has always been on providing the best possible instrument for the money.
The KA-15S is well-suited for classroom use, practicing, and acoustic performance, making it the instrument of choice for schools. More people learn to play on a Kala ukulele than any other brand. The KA-15S is a traditional Mahogany Soprano Ukulele with a satin finish, producing a bright, warm, and full-bodied tone.
The KA-15S is distinguished by its Walnut Fingerboard and Bridge, Mahogany Neck, 12 Brass Frets, GraphTech NuBone, and Aquila Super Nylgut Strings from Italy, as well as its etched Polynesian-style Shark Teeth rosette.
Kala ukuleles are played by some of the most renowned musicians around the world, including twenty one pilots, Vance Joy, dodie, EatMyUke, The Ukulele Teacher, and Zac Brown.
The Soprano ukulele is the most common size, being the smallest with the shortest scale length and tightest fret spacing, tuned G C E A.
