Description
Based upon the Renaissance Lute which was prevalent in Europe in the 16th and 17th century, the Lute-kulele™ is one of the sweetest sounding ukuleles in our collection and is ideally suited for classical and fingerstyle music.
This
Tenor-sized
instrument is based upon a
17 inch scale, and features six strings.
The first (A) and third (C) strings are doubled providing a rich full and balanced tone. It is played like any normal 4-string ukulele. It features a European spruce soundboard with the famous Leonardo Knot rosette which was a favorite of many Renaissance lute makers. The back is made in the traditional manner of lute-making and is made of alternating staves of Sheesham and Lacewood. The neck and pegbox are solid Sheesham
and features a bone nut with a width of 37mm (1 1/2 inch). An end-pin strap button is standard.
Softcase, Extra String Set Included. Free Shipping.

Tuning? Stringing?
March 14, 2024
Reviewer: Mark Newstetter from San Francisco, CA
More of a question than a review.
The description says the 1st (A) and 3rd (C) are doubled, but the photo shows the 2nd and 3rd strings are doubled.
Is it tuned G3, C4, E4, A4 ... Standard non-reentrant uke tuning?
