An "RG" Approach to the Tenor Ukulele

With the URGT100, Ibanez transposes the spirit of its modern instruments to a tenor ukulele designed for comfort and precision. Its "RG Tenor Ukulele" shape and extended access thanks to 24 frets make it a unique model in a usually more traditional setup, while maintaining true acoustic musicality.

Who Is It For, and In Which Styles?

This model is aimed at motivated beginners as well as intermediate players who want a versatile ukulele, pleasant to play, and stage-ready. The tenor format (scale length 17" / 422 mm) provides more ease and note sustain, practical for pop/folk strumming, vocal accompaniment, but also fingerstyle and more ambitious melodic lines. Its factory tuning (1A, 2E, 3C, 4G) allows immediate access to standard reference points.

The Sound

The spruce top promotes a clear attack and good definition, ideal for dynamic rhythms and precise arpeggios. The okoumé back and sides add a warmer, woodier tone at low dynamics, while keeping the trebles present when strumming harder. The Purpleheart fingerboard and bridge enhance midrange clarity and add brightness, useful for standing out in a mix. The side sound port improves the player's monitoring experience, and on the amplification side, the undersaddle pickup combined with the AEQ-2UT preamp allows quick adjustment of bass and treble, with a very practical built-in tuner for playing plugged in without external accessories.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

For maintenance and stage use, you can consider a tenor ukulele string set (for example nylon type Aquila Nylblack Tenor, as per the original setup), a 1/4" instrument cable for the endpin jack output, as well as 2 CR2032 batteries for the preamp.
