Artist Elite: a series designed for the stage and premium finishes
Part of the Artist Elite range, the Alvarez AU90TCE stands out with a selection of figured woods and meticulous craftsmanship focused on performance. The choice of AA figured solid acacia (top, back, and sides) offers a more "mature" response than laminated construction, with rich dynamics and a very distinctive aesthetic. In tenor format, the instrument gains in fullness and presence while remaining easy to handle.
Who is this ukulele for?
This model targets intermediate to professional musicians seeking an expressive tenor ukulele, equally credible acoustically and plugged in. It perfectly suits pop, folk, jazz, bossa, and world music, both for rhythmic strumming and fingerstyle playing. It operates in standard GCEA "re-entrant" tuning and also accepts a low-G string setup for deeper tones.
Sound
Solid acacia, often appreciated for its tonal kinship with koa, offers a very musical balance: present mids, rounded lows, and soft highs without harshness. The tenor body provides generous projection and natural sustain that highlights arpeggios, melodic lines, and open chords. The cutaway facilitates high fret positions without sacrificing essential resonance. Amplified, the AUE 20 EQ system allows fine-tuning of the equalization, and the built-in tuner ensures accurate intonation during rehearsals, studio sessions, or concerts.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the best out of the Alvarez AU90TCE, choose a tenor ukulele string set (GCEA) suited to your touch, a tenor ukulele gig bag or case fitting a total length of about 26.58" / 675 mm, a ukulele capo (narrow format), and a 1/4" / 6.35 mm jack cable for stage use. Also keep a spare set of CR2032 batteries for the electronics.
