Barnes & Mullins Tenor Ukulele - Koa

Barnes & Mullins BMUK7 ukuleles use all-Koa tonewoods that radiate an exotic vibe with their contrasting dark and light wood grain patterns creating a stunning, shimmering visual elegance.

One of the most traditionally used ukulele woods, Koa is synonymous with authentic Hawaiian ukulele sounds, delivering a direct, mid-range tone with plenty of sustain and good level of high-end chime.

Complete with a beautiful mother of pearl binding and rosette, Barnes & Mullins BMUK7 ukuleles deliver both visually and aurally and are a great choice for players seeking an authentic instrument that is a real head turner.

BMUK7 ukuleles feature strap buttons for attaching a ukulele strap.

Who is this ukulele for?

Tenor ukuleles are the largest of the three common sizes of ukulele (soprano, concert, tenor). Tenor ukuleles are often the go-to for professional players and their larger size and inherent playability offer an excellent choice for players wanting to experiment with different playing styles. They perform particularly well in a ukulele duo or trio – occupying the lower frequencies wonderfully.

Their larger size means they deliver a deep, resonant and bass-y tone with excellent volume and can be tuned to high-G (the same as soprano and concert ukes) or low-G where the G string is tuned down one whole octave for a mellower tone.
