Overview
Not a soprano and not a tenor, the Kala KA-C is a concert ukulele built in mahogany with a satin finish. Aquila Super Nylgut strings come fitted, and cream binding trims the edges of the body.
Mahogany throughout gives a warm, full voice, and Kala positions it for beginners and collectors alike. The open question is construction, since the listing never says whether the top is laminate, along with which carry option comes in the box.
Who it's for
First-time players and collectors adding a mahogany concert body get a classic look and a warm voice. Left-handed players and anyone needing electronics should look at a different model.
Pros and cons
- Warm, full mahogany tone
- Aquila Super Nylgut strings fitted
- Cream binding adds a finished look
- Bag or case included
- Laminate or all-wood top not specified
- Included bag or case is ambiguous
- Right handed only
- No built-in electronics
Performance notes
Tone comes from a mahogany top over a mahogany body, which leans warm, while the Aquila Super Nylgut strings set the attack and brightness. Satin finish adds little mass to the top. Setup at the nut and saddle decides how easily chords fret.
