Islander by Kanile'a - Mahogany Tenor Ukulele!
This was the model that really put Islander on the map. The MT-4 has such a big warm tone while still retaining the bright qualities that are uniquely ukulele.
This one really get towards that Kanile'a tone but with it's own voice. We're impressed with the volume and body of sound this model gives at such an affordable price and it's been the perfect fit for many of our customers.
The Islander has a 1.5" nut width allowing a little more space when compared to the 1 3/8" most companies do. That aspect makes it popular for those with larger hands or just players that want more space for chording.
Mika gives a raw sound sample.
If you are looking for an affordable , high quality sound in a tenor ukulele, this Islander MT-4 may be just right!
"The Islander Mahogany Series Ukulele offers a very bright yet balanced traditional Hawaiian tone that is so synonymous to this wonderful instrument. Our time-honored approach allows these instruments have a very clean, authentic ukulele look to them".

I love it like a mango! 0 people found this helpfulI have played this everyday since I received it (3 months) and it has done nothing but bring me happiness. The playability is incredible. Barre chords are crisp and bright. Up and down the fret board the tone is consistent and amazing. I'm sure the set up HMS has a lot to do with that. The fit and feel reminds me of my favorite jean jacket, it just feels right. It is loud when it needs to be, it's soft when you want it to be. It's a do it all and great sounding uke! You get certainly get your money's worth and then some with this baby. I was looking for something affordable with a great sound, fit and feel and found it right here in the MT-4. That's what I paid for and that's what I got. I guess, like the case, the good looks were free. Everyone who has heard me play it say the same thing "Wow, that has a real nice sound."
