Common questions
Is the Kala NSL-TSPR-T solid wood or laminate?
The Kala NSL-TSPR-T is all solid wood, with a solid torrefied spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides.
What is a torrefied spruce top?
The Kala NSL-TSPR-T top is spruce that was heat-treated before the ukulele was built. Torrefaction gives the wood an amber color and a punchy, articulate tone often compared to an older, played-in instrument.
Does the Kala NSL-TSPR-T have a pickup?
Yes. The Kala NSL-TSPR-T has built-in electronics (Passive Piezo), plus a Florentine cutaway for reaching the higher frets.
How is the Kala NSL-TSPR-T tuned?
The Kala NSL-TSPR-T is tuned G-C-E-A, standard ukulele tuning.
Who is the Kala NSL-TSPR-T for?
The Kala NSL-TSPR-T suits players who want a fuller, louder voice and more room on the fretboard, including performers and players with bigger hands. Its all-solid torrefied spruce top and mahogany back and sides give a bright and clear sound that grows richer with playing. The built-in pickup lets you plug into an amp or PA for gigs, open mics and recording.
