Looking for a ukulele with a bigger sound and larger fretboard? On a budget and don’t want to spend a lot of money? The Makai CK-55 Concert ukulele might be just what you are looking for!
The Makai CK-55 is a little larger than the soprano ukulele, allowing for a bigger sound and has a larger fingerboard. Its larger size allows for a little extra room for playing chords making it ideal for people with larger hands and is easy to carry and store.
The Makai CK-55 Concert is a good compromise between the sound of the Soprano and the ease of playing you get from the Tenor. The Makai CK-55 Concert ukulele is one of our most popular ukuleles in this series.
Makai CK-55 Concert features:
• Nato neck
• Bone nut and saddle
• GHS black nylon strings
• Matte finish for that natural look
• Industry standard scale and total length
• Beautiful Rosewood fingerboard and bridge
• Lightweight geared tuners for easy tuning
• Quality Mahogany laminate top, back and sides
Mahogany is considered the prime tonewood and is probably the most popular on the market. Mahogany is a medium density wood that is typically reddish in color. Mahogany produces tones that are warm and bright without too much emphasis on either end of the tonal spectrum. If you are looking for a richer mid-range tone, then a Mahogany ukulele might be what you are looking for.
The Makai CK-55 Concert is made from a special composite wood especially designed for ukuleles. It is not the cheap plywood with scrap wood glued in the middle. Their durability makes them an excellent choice used in the soundboard allowing for the required thinness to produce a louder sound and are not vulnerable to grain splits. The Makai CK-55 Concert is very popular, has exceptional sound quality and is a great value.
Each Makai CK-55 Concert is factory inspected by a qualified technician prior to shipping for smooth fret ends, precision normal action and resonant sound quality. The Makai CK-55 Concert is ready to play right out of the box, however some slight tuning may be required. When you compare the overall price of the Makai CK-55 Concert to other online websites, you will find that this is a very affordable instrument and one you will enjoy playing.
