The Voyage Collection: a Kala x Sam Mangakahia Collaboration
With The Voyage Collection, Kala partners with Maori artist Sam Mangakahia to offer instruments where aesthetics tell a story. Each design revolves around universal human experiences - Unity, Courage, and Guidance - depicted through powerful natural elements. The laser engraving on mahogany provides a precise and durable finish, and each ukulele comes with a customized carrying bag from the collection, as well as a "story" card explaining the artwork's message.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
This concert ukulele is suitable both for beginners seeking an inspiring instrument and for intermediate players wanting an expressive and easy-to-carry playing companion. The concert size is particularly well-suited for pop/folk rhythms, chord strumming as well as fingerpicking, offering a comfortable grip and good fretboard visibility.
Sound
The mahogany top delivers a warm signature, with present midrange and balanced response, ideal for accompanying vocals and maintaining coherence in rhythmic playing. The satin finish promotes a pleasant "wood" feel under the hand and smooth playability, while the Graph Tech NuBone nuts contribute to a sharper attack and better vibration transmission, beneficial for tuning stability and note definition. The result: an expressive ukulele, comfortable in a soft, round, and musical register.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the most out of this model, you can choose concert ukulele strings (gauge suited to the size), as well as a clip-on tuner, practical and compatible with all headstock types. The personalized carrying bag is included, so you're ready for rehearsals and travel.
