Experience the Deep Resonance of Striped Ebony
The Kala EBY-B Striped Ebony Baritone Ukulele offers a unique tonal profile that bridges the gap between a traditional uke and an acoustic guitar. While many players start with smaller models, the baritone size provides a deep, commanding presence. This instrument features a striking striped ebony body that looks as sophisticated as it sounds.
Furthermore, the satin finish allows the natural wood grain to pop beautifully. Because the baritone uses D-G-B-E tuning, guitarists will find the transition to this instrument incredibly seamless. The mahogany neck paired with a rosewood fretboard ensures a comfortable playing experience for hours. Additionally, the maple binding provides a sharp contrast against the dark, exotic wood. Consequently, this ukulele stands out on any stage or in any collection.
Premium Components for Superior Sound
The hardware on this model is specifically chosen to maximize the resonance of the ebony wood. For instance, the Graph Tech NuBone nut and saddle are far superior to standard plastic components. These parts help transfer energy from the strings to the body more efficiently. As a result, you get a clearer tone with much better sustain during long chords.
In addition to the hardware, the string choice plays a vital role in the overall output. This model includes Aquila Super Nylgut strings, featuring a wound D and G string for that classic baritone growl. These strings feel smooth under the fingers while providing a punchy, warm response. Therefore, your fingerpicking and heavy strumming will both sound equally balanced.

Understanding the Baritone Dimensions
Measurement is key when choosing an instrument that fits your physical playing style. This ukulele features an overall length of 30.37 inches, making it the largest in the uke family. Because the scale length is 20.18 inches, the string tension feels firm and professional. Moreover, the 1.5-inch nut width ensures that your fingers have plenty of room to move.
The body depth of 3.18 inches allows for a larger acoustic chamber, which naturally boosts the volume. Even though it is a laminate build, the striped ebony construction is incredibly sturdy and resistant to weather. This makes it an ideal companion for traveling musicians who need reliability. Consequently, you can take this gorgeous instrument anywhere without constant worry.
Quality Craftsmanship and Reliability
Choosing a Kala instrument means you are investing in a legacy of quality and musical innovation. The laminate striped ebony construction provides excellent durability against humidity changes while maintaining a high-end look. Meanwhile, the included one-year limited warranty offers peace of mind for your investment. If you want a rich, bass-heavy sound, this baritone is the perfect choice for your next musical journey.
