Kala - Striped Ebony Bariton

When a baritone ukulele reaches out to you, a different conversation begins. The Kala Striped Ebony Bariton immediately imposes its aura with its dark wood and reddish veins that seem to capture the light. Its generous size is not intimidating, but rather an invitation to take flight. Tuned in DGBE like the four high strings of a guitar, it speaks a familiar language while retaining its Hawaiian soul.

Place your fingers on the mahogany neck and feel the space. The 18 frets open up a vast playground where your melodies can take on a whole new dimension. The Aquila Super Nylgut® strings, with their spun basses, provide unprecedented acoustic density, while the Graph Tech NuBone® saddles optimise vibration transmission. Your right hand finds a new expressivity between delicate picking and energetic strumming.

Striped ebony is not just an aesthetic choice. This dense wood gives the instrument long sustain and crystal-clear midrange. The bass is present without being intrusive, creating a perfect balance for vocal accompaniment or instrumental compositions. In a home studio context, it behaves magnificently at the microphone, requiring little correction.

For the curious guitarist, this baritone becomes a natural gateway to the world of the ukulele without having to relearn all the chords. Experienced ukulele players will discover unsuspected harmonic possibilities.
