All Solid Mahagony Ukulele with Slotted Headtsock and active pickup system!
From the very popular all solid mahogany series from Kala come this tenor cutaway with pickup. Great solid Mahogany tone with the classic Martin tone and look. This model comes ready to plug in for live or recording use. Corey samples the SMHT-E for us here (not plugged in).
This uke resembles like a Martin tenor that was so well loved and used by Lyle Ritz and a bunch of the first jazz ukulele players back in the day. Martin stopped making this model many years ago, but the Kala SMH series really takes off from that classic ukulele but with a tie bridge like a Kamaka Tenor. Voiced to be articulate and still full, this tenor ukulele will give you everything you need. If you just have a starter ukulele step up to an all solid wood one like this and you will truly hear a big difference!

excellent all purpose instrument 0 people found this helpfulI bought this model last year as my first "serious" ukulele and first tenor. I must say I haven't put it down since. First I thought I didn't like it much but after a few weeks the sound began to open and gets better and better since then. Plus, after a few weeks, it seems to stay tuned forever, just a few adjustments sometimes and here we go ! This instrument is very good for funky strumming. Nuances and variations of the sound are very pleasant even when strumming quite hard and fast. It's good for picking too, overall this instrument is quite versatile and can be played in many styles. Since then I bought a Pono MGT-PC, I must say I still prefer this Kala, for the Pono is excellent for picking but a bit muddy for my ears when strummed, though it costs almost twice the price. I must say too that since a few weeks, I have a buzz on the C string from the first fret to the fifth. When plugged, the sound is a bit agressive, but if you simply turn the treble a bit down on both the ukulele and the amplifier it's sweet and mellow again.
