Kala Maori - Gardenia Mahogany Concert

Voyage Collection: Maori Art at the Heart of the Instrument

Designed with artist Sam Mangakahia, the The Voyage Collection series highlights artworks that tell stories through nature-inspired motifs. Each design revolves around universal human experiences such as Unity, Courage, Guidance, Resilience, and Ingenuity, making the instrument a true object of expression as well as music.

For Whom and Which Styles?

Thanks to its concert size, this ukulele suits both serious beginners and intermediate musicians looking for an inspiring everyday instrument. It is especially comfortable in acoustic pop, folk, reggae, vocal accompaniment, and playing both arpeggios and rhythm. Its size remains comfortable for small hands while offering a playing space appreciated for chords and fast transitions.

Sound

The mahogany top provides a warm tone, focused on the midrange, with a soft attack and a balanced response ideal for strumming. The mahogany neck contributes to a stable and familiar feel, while the rosewood fingerboard adds a touch of precision and definition in articulation. The Graph Tech NuBone nut and saddle duo promotes excellent vibration transmission, resulting in pleasant sustain and more consistent intonation across the neck. The satin finish completes the package with a natural touch and lively resonance.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To get the most out of this size, opt for a concert ukulele string set (standard tuning). A chromatic tuner is also an excellent complement to improve tuning accuracy daily, both at home and on the go.
