Pono TE Solidbody Electric Tenor Acacia Ukulele with hard case

Made from solid chambered acacia with a satin finish, this Pono TE tenor ukulele is one of the finest electric ukuleles on the market today. We have nothing but time for these stunning instruments.

Made in Indonesia, this ukulele features a macassar ebony faceplate and radiused fretboard, passive Pono undersaddle pickup, high quality geared machine heads, and Ko'olau Mahana High G strings. It's then sent to Hawaii where the pickup is added and the final set up is done by the Ko'olau guys in Hawaii.

The build quality is exactly what you would expect from Pono, faultless, and the engineering behind the design is very clever. This electric ukulele is highly feedback resistant when plugged in, so you can focus on what is really important, sounding great and looking fabulous!

This tenor ukulele also has enough volume when unplugged for quiet personal practice. And with a radiused fretboard, it feels more like an electric instrument than a standard acoustic ukulele. The truss rod, which is fairly unique to Pono ukuleles, allows for ease of setup and adjustment to get it just so.

About the Pono line: The “Pono” line is made by Ko’olau one of the oldest and most traditional Hawaiian ukulele manufacturers. Ko’olau’s goal throughout the years has been to provide the highest quality stringed instruments available with a high standard of craftsmanship. And besides methods of construction to optimize tone and volume, they stress the importance of cosmetic beauty.

It is of interest to note that only the finest grades of quartersawn hardwoods, such as mahogany, rosewood, and ebony are selected for Pono instruments. However, only 20% pass the stringent requirements of density, grain patterns, flexibility, and cosmetic aesthetics. This is virtually unknown, especially in the Asian import market. We are proud of the fact that all of the Pono instruments are made of solid woods.
