Looking for a unique or a novel body style, yet want the Soprano size? The Makai PK-55 Pineapple Soprano might be just what you are looking for.
The pineapple, or oval, body style is perhaps the second most common body style, delivering a rich, fruity tone. Like our UK-55 Soprano, it is a notch better than most entry-level soprano ukuleles and is most suited to strumming and chord type playing where most people start. Its size makes it ideal for easier fretting of big stretches.
The Makai PK-55 Soprano is easy to hold which makes it the perfect size for children and is easy to carry and store.
Makai PK-55 Soprano features:
• Nato neck
• Pineapple body style
• 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 PK-55 Soprano 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 PK-55 Soprano is very popular, has exceptional sound quality and is a great value.
Each Makai PK-55 Soprano is factory inspected by a qualified technician prior to shipping for smooth fret ends, precision normal action and resonant sound quality. The Makai PK-55 Soprano 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 PK-55 Soprano to other online websites, you will find that this is a very affordable instrument and one you will enjoy playing.
