Alvarez RU22TCE

Regent Series: the Alvarez spirit in an accessible approach

The RU22TCE is part of the Regent range, designed to offer a reliable and rewarding instrument from the very first hours of playing, without sacrificing the essentials: clean finishes, immediate playability, and a choice of proven materials. In the world of electro-acoustic ukuleles, this model positions itself as a serious option for those who want a versatile tenor, capable of supporting rapid progress and switching to amplified playing when needed.

A tenor ukulele made for learning, evolving, and amplified playing

This electro-acoustic tenor ukulele is particularly aimed at beginners and intermediate players seeking more playing space than a soprano or concert. The standard tuning G-C-E-A and the 17" / 432 mm scale length favor cleaner chords, comfortable transitions, and better clarity in picking. Pop, folk, chanson, reggae, bossa: the RU22TCE feels at ease in all registers where you want a round accompaniment but also melodic lines that stand out.

The sound

With a laminated mahogany top, back, and sides, the RU22TCE emphasizes a warm and homogeneous tonal signature: singing midrange, soft highs, and a pleasant attack without harshness. The tenor format generally provides more body and longer sustain, useful for arpeggios and melodic parts, while the cutaway frees access to the last frets for playing higher up the neck. Once plugged in, the Alvarez UK200T preamp allows quick balance adjustments: boost the bass for more roundness, shape the mids for more definition, or open the highs to better highlight fingerstyle playing.

Recommended compatible accessories

To equip your RU22TCE without mistakes, prioritize a tenor ukulele string set (G-C-E-A tuning), a chromatic clip-on tuner for quick tuning, and a 6.35 mm mono (TS) jack cable for connection to an amplifier or mixing console.
