Fender Montecito Tenor Ukulele – Koa
Inspired by the California home of many celebrities, this ukulele’s screen-ready looks and headline grabbing features could only have one name-the Montecito Ukulele. Constructed completely from koa, this tenor-sized uke has a rich, sonorous tone, that matches its sumptuously elegant aesthetic. The solid top provides enhanced resonance and sustain, along with incredible warmth and well-balanced projection. The Montecito’s koa body is complemented by blue-green abalone top binding and a bound back and fingerboard for a refined look. Other features include a no-tie bridge for quick, easy string changes, a bone nut and saddle for superior intonation, an abalone rosette, vintage-style closed-back tuning machines and a 4-in-line Tele headstock for that unmistakably classic Fender look.

Instrument suits it, but I do not like wound strings and would rather decide to add it myself (like an Aquila Red). That being said I love the voice on this uke, has some brightness but seems…
Gorgeous Tone
Perfect set up! This instrument is so beautiful that it almost distracts from its sound. I love the iconic Fender tele headstock, though it’s probably not going to appeal to everyone. The fit and finish on this instrument was terrific and I couldn’t find a single flaw. The action is low the way I like it and the aquila super nylgut strings tuned up well. Like all new strings, you need to stretch them a bit, but after only an hour or so, they’re already holding pretty well for me.The provided…
