MAHOGANY SOLID TOP.
The solid mahogany top is a great addition to a ukulele in this Price range.  The solid top vibrates with a clear and strong sound, and being solid the wood will age and sound better and better every year.

PICKUP ... PLUG IN ... POWERRRRRR
The CK-20CE is fitted with a pick-up and that mean you can lug it into an amplifier or PA system ...Powerrrrrr.

You get a full featured battery powered Pre-amp system to go with thwe pickup so you can use the bass and Treble sliders to craft your desired tone from a bright rock tone to a smooth Jazz tone with the treble backed down.  Plenty of output volume too.

PLAYING SOLOS ARE A BREEZE.
The Neck is a nice contour and dimension.  Personally I like the Ukes with wider fatter necks, they are just more comfortable.  That's part of why I like

Ohana Ukuleles, their necks are just right, not too thin or too shallow,  generous with the shape of the rear of the neck full and round in your left hand.

Very comfortable. And the cutaway body style makes access to the top frets easy for soloing.

Belcat active EQ system with built in tuner

Want a Better Rhythm Hand ... Listen to the Drummer ... its all there.

I tell my ukulele students if you want to develop a better rhythm hand you have to start listening to the drummer, start thinking like a drummer.

Drummers are telling you what the strumming pattern is, where the fills go, what beats to accent, it's all there just listen.

Just because you aren't the drummer doesn't meant you don't have to count.

And I leave you with this quote from perhaps the greatest rhythm hand in the business KEEF ... “Drums, eh,” says Keith Richards. “Without it you’re kinda nowhere'

Fits Kala UBASS UKULELE AND ASHBORY THUNDER REDS® SETS

The Thunder Reds® sets: a unique look and a strong, consistent sound.

Until now, it was necessary to increase a string’s gauge to reach lower frequencies. But increasing the string’s diameter also increases internal dampening. That makes the string less bright, less responsive and more muffled:  the thicker the string, the duller the sound.

Our revolutionary new approach —never introduced before us— changes the specific weight of the material, increasing it progressively to leave the gauge unchanged.

The 4 strings set is designed for Kala UBASS & Ashbory bass only (of 18″ till 21″ scale).  Attention: do not use on longer scales!

The Waterman Story
KALA Ukulele, known for several brands of high quality yet affordable instruments, has been inspired by the 1950's Maccaferri ukulele and created a new uke with a focus on the outdoor enthusiast. "The Waterman" is a ukulele for everyone but pays special tribute to people that live the waterman, outdoor lifestyle.

The Waterman Ukulele pays homage in part to the legendary ukulele designer, Mario Maccaferri. Inspired at the 1939 World's Fair he saw plastic as the material of the future. Mario eventually combined his skills as a luthier and his business of injection molding and invented the Maccaferi Ukulele. After being endorsed by entertainer, Arthur Godfrey, on his TV show, 9 million of the Maccaferri ukes were sold between 1949 and 1969.

The Kala Makala Waterman Soprano Uke takes the Maccaferri concept to all new heights.
An affordable, innovative uke with the quality you've come to expect from Kala, the Makala Waterman plays great, sounds great, and stays in tune.

From the beach to the mountains and everything in between, the Makala Waterman boasts a durable high-grade polycarbonate construction and a travel-friendly, water-resistant design that makes this uke the perfect choice no matter where you go.

Comes equipped with a set of nickel-plated open-gear tuners and a set of Aqulia Super Nylgut strings. Can easily converted for left-handed players. Includes a logo backpack bag.
