All Solid Acacia from Kala!
This beautiful, all-solid Striped Acacia will turn heads and please ears. Decorative features include a slotted headstock with vintage styled gear tuners, custom abalone fret marker inlays, maple binding and vintage-style herringbone purfling. Acacia is also called Mimosa or Shower Tree; these tropical trees are cousins of the Hawaiian Koa Tree. They have gorgeous striped patterns of light and dark brown and have a deep colorful tone that match their beauty.
For the last decade this model has been one of our best selling models. The binding is now maple wood and the fretboard and bridge are walnut. They lightened the weight of this instrument and increased the resonance and the new SA-T is certainly one of the best options for a high quality, modestly priced solid wood tenor.

We have become very good friends the Kala and I 0 people found this helpfulIt took 6 weeks from I ordered my Kala Akascia Tenor ukulele till the package reach my house in Norway. I was very excited and scared that it was lost. So I was very glad when it arrived. At first I was a little bit disapointed. For me the strings where to high over the fretboard and the setup was not very good for me. I usually play on a Martin soprano, 50 years old, and not many ukes I have played can mach that one. But after I had used file and sandpaper, I vas very pleased. I am very glad i bought it and after setting it upp, it is very playable.

Heavy build 0 people found this helpfulI like this uke but the Kala Solid Mahogany Tenor is a much better sounding instrument, in my opinion, for a lot less money. Also a lot lighter. The slot-head and acacia wood are cool and attractive but I'm not a fan of the curly-cue position markers. I think this would look great with no fretboard markers. The weight of this uke is heavy and solid to me. I"m sure others will love this instrument but I just never connected with it.
