Named after the Rincon surf spot, this model captures Fender's beloved "beach & stage" aesthetic. Its "Aged Cognac Burst" finish and vintage details place it among the most elegant tenors in the lineup, designed to transition seamlessly from beach hut to spotlight without compromising style.
For Which Musician and Styles?
The tenor format and 17" scale offer left-hand space and comfortable tension: ideal for motivated beginners as well as intermediate/advanced players, including guitarists switching over. Perfect for pop/folk strumming, ballads, reggae, bossa, or more articulated fingerpicking thanks to its balanced response.
Sound
Fully crafted from ovangkol (top, back, and sides), the Rincon delivers woody mids, clear highs, and a better-set low end than a concert ukulele. The fan bracing promotes top resonance, with a bright attack and natural sustain. The satin open-pore finish allows the wood to vibrate freely. The bone nut and saddle stabilize tuning and refine intonation, while the FE-U01 preamp reproduces a faithful and musical sound live on console, with simple and effective tone controls to adapt the stage/studio balance.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain and optimize your Rincon: a set of tenor ukulele strings (standard tuning G-C-E-A), a ukulele capo to vary keys without changing fingerings, and an acoustic instrument humidifier to preserve wood stability during seasonal changes. A tenor-sized hard case can complement the included gig bag if you travel frequently.
