Kala Long Neck Soprano Ukulele
The Kala KA-SLNG is a long-neck soprano ukulele built with a mahogany body and finished in natural high-gloss. It ships strung with Aquila strings and weighs approximately two pounds. The instrument is aimed at beginners and experienced players who want a compact ukulele with extended scale length for comfortable fret spacing.
Mahogany body with high-gloss finish
The all-mahogany construction produces a full-bodied tone that blends sweet highs with mellow lows for a rich overall sound. A cream binding outlines the body for a refined appearance. The gloss coating protects the woodgrain while adding a smooth feel during extended playing sessions.
Long-neck soprano scale under sustained play
The longer neck on a soprano body keeps string tension consistent during long practice or performance sets, helping intonation remain stable as the instrument warms. Aquila strings maintain their brightness over repeated strumming and fingerpicking. The lightweight frame reduces fatigue when the ukulele is held for hours at a time.

Questions about this item
How do I fit Aquila strings on the long-neck soprano scale, and what step do people get wrong?
Thread each Aquila string through the bridge tie-block, wrap the short end twice before seating the knot, then wind onto the tuning pegs so the coils stack downward — skipping the double wrap lets the knot slip under tension.
What maintenance will the gloss mahogany body and Aquila strings need over time?
Wipe the high-gloss finish with a dry microfibre cloth after every session to remove skin oils; re-string with Aquila soprano sets when the trebles lose intonation or show visible wear, typically every few months with regular play.
At what point does the 2 lb weight and soprano body limit projection during a long set?
The compact mahogany body reaches its volume ceiling in louder ensemble passages before a larger concert or tenor ukulele would, so sustained heavy strumming in a band mix is where the limit appears first.
