Photos marked as examples show the body and headstock of an earlier K-1 17” super tenor, which shares the same body; the 19” has a longer neck, and your koa grain will be different. Build time is usually 6 to 8 weeks, and we confirm it with you after you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the Core, Pro and Natural K-1 super tenor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll three are solid Hawaiian koa with the same body, neck, round soundhole and Kanile'a TRU-R Bracing. The Core has Deluxe Grade koa with a UV gloss body and UV silk neck. The Pro uses Premium Grade koa and adds an oval side sound port, TRU-Reduction soundboard etching, a graphite infused black TUSQ nut and saddle, and a low-G string set. The Natural has Select Grade koa with a single-layer UV cured natural (satin) finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is TRU-Reduction soundboard etching?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRU-Reduction is a Kanileʻa process that uses laser etching to remove wood from selected areas on the inside of the koa soundboard. The lighter, more flexible top vibrates more freely, which gives more projection and sustain without weakening the top. It is one of the Pro Series upgrades; the Core and Natural Series do not have it. All three series share the same Kanileʻa TRU-R Bracing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the 17” and 19” K-1 super tenor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth use the larger super tenor body. The 17” super tenor keeps a tenor's 17.08” scale, so it plays like a tenor with more volume and a deeper voice. The 19” super tenor, on this page, has a longer 19.06” scale with more string tension and wider fret spacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the K-1 compare to the D-1?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey share the same Hawaiian koa, mahogany neck, Crown headstock and series options. The K-1 has a traditional round soundhole and ebony bridge pins, and the D-1 has Kanile'a's D-shaped soundhole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Kanile'a K-1 super tenor ukulele solid wood?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Every Kanile'a K-1 super tenor, Core, Pro or Natural, is built from solid Hawaiian koa on the top, back and sides, with a single-piece genuine mahogany neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is the Kanile'a K-1 super tenor tuned?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Core and Natural come with Kanile'a x Worth fluorocarbon strings and a high G for standard re-entrant G-C-E-A tuning. The Pro comes with a Kanile'a x Worth fluorocarbon set with a wound low G for a fuller bottom end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere is the Kanile'a K-1 ukulele made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kanile'a K-1 ukulele is made in Hawaiʻi by Kanileʻa ʻUkulele.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I choose the exact ukulele I get?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Kanile'a K-1 19” Super Tenor is hand-built from solid koa, so no two have the same grain.
