Striped Ebony Tenor Ukulele
The Kala Striped Ebony Tenor Ukulele is an acoustic-electric instrument built for players who value distinctive tonewoods. Its high-density striped ebony body delivers superior tonal qualities with a deep brown colour and reddish-brown striping. A light maple rosette and binding add visual contrast. The built-in 3-band equaliser with chromatic tuner makes it stage-ready for performing musicians.
Acoustic resonance with onboard EQ
The solid wood construction produces natural acoustic projection suited to practice rooms and small venues. When amplified, the integrated preamp shapes tone through bass, middle and treble controls without adding external gear. The onboard chromatic tuner allows quick, silent tuning between songs. Satin finish preserves the wood’s organic feel while resisting fingerprints during extended playing sessions.
Consistent voice under stage conditions
Dense striped ebony resists humidity-driven swelling, helping the instrument hold pitch through long sets under hot lights. The active electronics draw minimal current from a standard 9 V battery, so the preamp stays responsive for an entire performance. Neck stability keeps action steady when the ukulele moves between backstage chill and stage heat, letting the player focus on dynamics rather than retuning.

Questions about this item
How is the built-in 3-band EQ with chromatic tuner installed and what step is often missed?
The preamp system is factory-fitted inside the Striped Ebony body; the step players miss is inserting the 9 V battery into the compartment near the endpin jack before first use.
What maintenance will the Striped Ebony tenor ukulele need over time?
Wipe the satin finish with a dry cloth, condition the fretboard annually, replace strings when worn, and change the 9 V battery when the tuner dims or EQ cuts out.
What limit appears first during a long amplified set?
The 9 V battery drains after several hours of continuous EQ and tuner use, so a fresh cell or spare is needed for extended performances.
