Featuring a unique hybrid body, superior ukulele craftsmanship, and cool Kala appointments, uke players with some experience, or guitar players looking for a fun new instrument to play, will really like this one. Unique Hybrid Body,The KA-RES-BRS is a tenor ukulele with an interesting twist. The tenor size body sports a lightweight aluminum resonator, like an old timey guitar. The resonator has an aluminum cone and is covered with brass. Additionally, the upper bout of the body sports F-holes, creating a unique aesthetic and beautiful sound. Superior Ukulele CraftsmanshipJust because it looks different, doesn't mean Kala spared any of its excellent craftsmanship. The resonator is set soundly in the mahogany top of this tenor uke. It also sports mahogany back and sides, and a mahogany neck. The fingerboard is a lightly colored walnut and has 18 frets. The scale length of this ukulele is 17 inches and the body measures 11.75 in length. Overall, the Kala KA-RES-BRS tenor ukulele provides an excellent playing experience.

  • Professional Bright Sound - Great Kala Quality
This is a terrific addition to my ukelele collection. The resonator makes it much louder than my other ukes, and it has a very bright sound with its High-G string. Almost has a banjo sound. My other main uke has nylon strings for a classical finger-picking style, but there are many songs that sound great on this resonator ukelele. In particular, older songs like "You Are My Sunshine," "When I'm Sixty-Four," "All of Me," and other Bluegrass/Blues-style songs sound great on this. It also works great for an authentic Hawaiian sound. This is a great alternative uke to have in addition to a traditional uke. The Kala quality is awesome! ... show more

  • Wonderful Resonator Ukulele
This is my first ever resonator ukulele. I have been very pleased with it. It arrived ready to play. All I had to do was tune it. I find it very easy to play. The size is very comfortable, and the sound is amazing. It definitely sounds different from normal ukuleles, but I think the sound is very good. I enjoy playing my old favorites and appreciating the difference the resonator makes. I think Kala has really given us a great product with this one. ... show more

  • It’s perfect
Awesome little uke!! I’m soooo happy with it. It even came in a week early. Sounds wonderful: has warmer low notes and it’ doesn’t sound too to loud & tinny with the resonator. But it’s louder than my regular tenor. It has great sound, great action nice smooth fretboard, and seems to be very well made. It’s really effortless to play. Can’t beat it for the price! ... show more

  • Lots of Sound!
I went searching for a baritone resonator ukulele that would make an even bigger sound than my powerful Lanakai baritone with just the spruce top ... and found nothing. Anywhere. Nobody in the USA makes resonators on baritone ukes. Adjusted my search to tenors and found this Kala. Thought I'd try it out, even tho it meant learning tenor chords (which is really easy, by the way). It was in my hands giving me a loud punchy thrill within a few days and that was 8-9 months ago. Stays tuned even when it's cold outside, no problems of any kind, excellent craftsmanship on this Kala tenor, and it does the job of making itself heard during my acoustic moonlit campfire concerts. I've since ordered a custom baritone resonator from a guy in England, cuz I like the sound of this resonator so much. It has become the other "work horse" uke in my arsenal of instruments for camp shows. Now they can hear me AND my ukulele, all the way across camp! ... show more
