Coletti Archtop Tenor Steel String Ukulele
Coletti Archtop Tenor Steel String Ukulele
The Martin Coletti & Radiotone brands manufactured some of the most revered Ukuleles of the pre-war period, with these new custom built Coletti instruments reviving the spirit of those original 1930's models. They are designed to give increased volume, sustain and dynamic response while retaining the vintage look and tone of their predecessors.
This Coletti Archtop Tenor Ukulele is strung with steel strings in low G tuning. The body is constructed from a solid hand-carved European spruce top with solid hand-carved walnut back and sides, featuring a beautifully striking grain to the wood. The solid 3-piece walnut neck sports an ebony fingerboard along with mother of pearl fingerboard and headstock inlays. A set of Derjung planetary tuners ensure tuning stability across the board. Other features include a rosewood bridge ABS bound fingerboard and body, a bone nut and ebony end pin. This Coletti Ukulele is finished in a natural French polish and includes a faux tweed hard shell case.
