Special Price £735.00 £735.00 Regular Price £850.00

Please note that all used ukuleles are only for sale to UK based customers. 

Here we have a very rare Kala Elite Tenor in solid Mahogany, with the stunning Salt and Pepper High Gloss Doghair finish. This was owned by one of our lovely regulars, who played it and loved it for a number of years before realising that the Baritone is a much better fit for them. This uke is in decent used condition, but it has a scratch on the back, some playwear to the top, and a small scuff on the headstock amongst other small marks. It is a solid 8/10 cosmetically, with a lot of life left in it, but please note that this is a used item, and this list of cosmetic issues in not exhaustive. The last one of these that we sold new went for £999, and the MiSi was a £179 upgrade. This Salt and Pepper finish was discontinued, as it was too difficult and time consuming, making this quite a rare thing indeed.

We have restrung it with Worth CT strings paired with a Fremont Squeakless Low G, and it plays and sounds absolutely wonderful, with that creamy richness that only Mahogany can produce. We retroffited the Misi pickup for the original customer, and it is still sounding as good as new. 

This Ukulele is also useful for players with bigger hands as it has Kala's quite unique fatter neck profile with the 38mm nut width.

Kala say:
The newest addition to the Doghair Collection is the Salt and Pepper Doghair Elite. Designed as an homage to Collings Doghair guitars, the Mahogany gets a color spray before filling the grains, which is then sealed and glossed, producing the sleek Salt and Pepper finish. The contrast is complemented by the Ebony fingerboard and white binding. Handmade at the Kala Shop, the Salt and Pepper Doghair Elite is available in a tenor model with a high-gloss finish. Each comes in a black, Kala USA hard case with a plush interior.
