Kala stands for a bright future!

Kala comes from the Hawaiian word for "good future", and with the Kala CT-SSRW-BG-C Baritone Ukulele, there is definitely a great-sounding future ahead. Unlike its counterparts in the ukulele family, the D-G-B-E tuning of a baritone ukulele is rather special, mirroring a guitar tuning without the lower E and A strings. The Kala CT-SSRW-BG-C's combination of solid woods, comprising a rosewood body with a spruce top and a mahogany neck combined with an ebony fingerboard, makes this great-sounding future a reality and gives players a promising basis for a really good baritone ukulele.

Hawaii and Venice?

An exquisitely crafted and extremely playable instrument can be noticed on the spot, and the Kala CT-SSRW-BG-C Baritone Ukulele has some qualities which makes it stand out from the crowd. One of its aesthetic characteristics is the ergonomically enhanced purpleheart binding, which serves as an arm rest for the picking hand on the solid spruce top. In addition to its eye-catching aspect, this has the major advantage of making the instrument more comfortable to play over extended periods of time. The body's Venetian cutaway ensures perfect access to all 19 of the nickel silver frets on the mahogany neck's elegant ebony fingerboard. And to ensure that the Aquila Super Nylgut strings with which this ukulele comes strung right from the factory can vibrate freely, the saddle of the ebony bridge and the top nut are both made from bone.

Outstanding in every application

Those looking for a baritone ukulele that is not only an eye-catcher but also wins players over with its elaborate design and sublime wood selection will find this baritone ukulele model from innovation-driven manufacturer Kala to be the perfect choice. The combination of woods - comprising a solid rosewood back and sides with a solid spruce top - delivers a particularly fast and precise response together with a punchy sound character that will cut through any mix, further enhanced by the mahogany neck with its ebony fingerboard, which provide a well-rounded and beautiful tone and make the Kala CT-SSRW-BG-C Baritone Ukulele ideal for both strumming and fingerpicking styles. And thanks to the Venetian cutaway and arm rest, this ukulele ensures an excellent and comfortable playing feel in every application, even for an extended time period.

About Kala

Kala Brand Music Co. is perhaps the world's most recognised ukulele manufacturer. The company was founded by the American Mike Upton in the early 2000s, in his hometown of Petaluma, California. Drawing on his earlier years of living and working in Hawaii, where he developed a deep affinity for the ukulele, Mike's mission was always to create high-quality, yet affordable ukuleles under the Kala brand that would make this instrument accessible to musicians of all backgrounds. This philosophy quickly paid dividends, leading to the rapid growth of Kala's instrument portfolio. The quality and variety of Kala's ukuleles have attracted the attention of many acclaimed artists, including Bakithi Kumalo, Abraham Laboriel Sr., Hutch Hutchinson, Twenty One Pilots, Walk off the Earth, and Eddie Vedder, all of whom are among the proud players of Kala instruments today.

Not just for the beach crowd

Those who only think about sunny beaches at the seaside whenever the word "ukulele" is uttered might not be so far away from the truth - however, this instrument can obviously do a lot more than just beach entertainment! Thanks to its guitar-like tuning, guitarists can also easily play the baritone ukulele without having to re-adjust, which opens the door to various opportunities - whether for new songwriting inspirations, doubling-up guitar tracks in the studio, or giving a song that certain something. Coming back to the beach for a second, though: At 779mm, the baritone ukulele is shorter than a guitar, which makes the high-gloss finished Kala CT-SSRW-BG-C Baritone Ukulele a compact and high-quality travel companion. The instrument also comes with a padded gig bag to allow it to be transported from one place to another without having to worry about scratches.

Served with love!
