KALA Revelator Koa Electric Baritone Ukulele w/Case - Made In The U.S.A.
The Kala USA Koa Revelator Baritone Ukulele is a masterful fusion of innovative design, premium materials, and exceptional craftsmanship. Handcrafted in Kala’s Petaluma, California workshop, this limited-edition instrument showcases the brand's dedication to pushing the boundaries of ukulele construction.
Design & Build
At the heart of the Revelator is a highly figured Hawaiian Koa top, renowned for its striking visual appeal and warm, resonant tone. The body is constructed from Honduran Mahogany, chosen for its tonal richness and lightweight. A unique feature of the Revelator is its routed body design, which creates acoustic chambers that enhance volume and tonal depth without adding bulk. The Florentine cutaway allows for easy access to higher frets, making it ideal for both strumming and intricate fingerpicking.
The Revelator's neck is carved from Honduran Mahogany and seamlessly transitions into the body, offering a smooth playing experience. An ebony fingerboard and bridge, along with hand-cut Corian nut and saddle, contribute to its refined feel and sustain. Gold Grover 14:1 tuners ensure precise tuning stability.
Equipped with brown fluorocarbon strings by Worth and wound D & G strings by D’Addario, the Revelator delivers a rich, full-bodied sound characteristic of the baritone ukulele. The passive piezo pickup system allows for natural amplification, making it suitable for both intimate performances and larger venues.
Aesthetic Details
The Revelator is adorned with Australian Mother of Pearl inlays and a custom Koa leaf headstock inlay, adding a touch of elegance to its design. Each instrument is unique, with variations in the highly figured Koa top ensuring that no two Revelators are alike.
Conclusion
The Kala USA Koa Revelator Baritone Ukulele is a testament to Kala's commitment to innovation and quality.
