Kala 20th Anni Solid Spruce Top/Quilted Sapele Baritone with Gig Bag

A 20th Anniversary Edition Between Tradition and Innovation

With this "20th Anniversary" series, Kala presents an instrument paying tribute to its roots and journey. The combination of solid spruce and quilted sapele marks a decidedly modern approach to Kala lutherie, designed to enhance both sound quality and visual elegance. The tuners feature a California poppy inlay, a nod to the brand's two historic homes: Hawaii and California, united in a series with a strong personality.

Who Is This Baritone Ukulele For?

This baritone ukulele is aimed at musicians seeking a deeper and fuller register, ideal for vocal accompaniment, rich chord playing, or fingerstyle arrangements. It suits intermediate to advanced levels very well thanks to its expressive character and refined finishes, but remains perfectly accessible to any player looking to upgrade to an inspiring instrument for stage, studio, and home.

Sound

The solid spruce top provides a clear attack, great precision, and excellent dynamic response: the sound opens easily, with clear projection and good balance. The quilted sapele (back and sides) complements this foundation with elegant warmth and presence in the midrange, while maintaining pleasant definition for chord playing. The baritone format naturally enhances depth and roundness, offering comfortable sustain and a more "guitar-like" harmonic foundation, while the fluorocarbon strings promote clarity, intonation, and controlled brightness.
