Crafted from koa, the C1K ukulele allows you to experience a wash of glistening textures, rich harmonies, and sparkling clarity. Its tone is located between that of maple and rosewood, meaning you have a gorgeous blend of warm resonance as well as shimmering brightness. Let every note shine with crisp definition. From the moment the sound escapes this wondrous tonewood, it is sure to slice through the air and captivate anyone who listens. Practice your strumming or fingerpicking styles knowing every nuance of your tone will be crystal-clear. Even with softest of touches, you will be truly enchanting.
The beauty of koa is that it grows more beautiful with age, so you can cherish its organic Hawaiian nature for years to come. The more the C1K is played, the more your sound will open up - presenting you with endless possibilities. Brightness, resonance, clarity, you name it, koa just keeps on giving. It is the perfect ukulele material for enthusiasts who want an authentic concert tone.
