It has a CNC-cut mahogany neck, an ebony fretboard and bridge, and a TUSQ nut and saddle. The headstock is KoAloha's 5-pointed crown with an ebony head plate and an abalone logo, and the soundhole is KoAloha's patented \"Musubi\" design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size is the KoAloha KTM-00 and how is it tuned?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe KoAloha KTM-00 is a tenor ukulele, 26.75 inches long overall, with a 17.25-inch scale length, a 1.5-inch nut width and 20 frets with Paua abalone top fret markers. It ships with KoAloha fluorocarbon strings tuned G-C-E-A with an unwound low G, and premium KoAloha geared tuners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the KoAloha KTM-00 sound like and who is it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKoAloha describes the tone of its koa ukuleles as a balance of warmth and brightness, and says they suit styles from fingerpicking to strumming and from classical to jazz. In his reviews, Terry Carter describes the KTM-00 as having a big sound, with the unwound low G adding bass, and a thin, comfortable neck profile that stays thin down the neck. He also says it is a good choice for a beginner who wants to start on a quality instrument, because it is easy to play and the action is good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow has the KoAloha KTM-00 changed over the years?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Terry Carter's review, the body of the KTM-00 has stayed the same over the years. The bridge and fretboard are now ebony (they were rosewood many years ago), and the ebony head plate arrived with KoAloha's 25th-anniversary models and stayed on the standard KTM line. He also says KoAloha moved the fretboard down about an inch and the bridge back about an inch in its newer models, which adds a little more clarity and sustain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill I receive the exact ukulele in the photos?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Each KoAloha KTM-00 we list is photographed individually, so the ukulele you choose under \"Your ukulele\" is the instrument shown in its photos.
