First-rate resonance
A graceful voice. Oozing with rich, authentic character. The Ortega RU5 Tenor Ukulele specialises in delivering a well-rounded blend of both precise tone, and exquisite resonance. Constructed with a quality, spruce top, you can produce a sound that vibrates freely around the entirety of RU5 Uke’s body. The tonal characteristics of the mahogany sides provide an added dimension of warmth and richness. So you can experience a sensational response from every strum.
Furthermore, a Tenor-sized shape delivers an exceptional performance for every musical situation. Tenor Ukes are characterised by their ability to produce deeper, fuller tones than that of their Concert and Soprano counterparts. This is delivered by the larger body and scale, allowing for maximum projection of its distinct tone. Crafted for clarity, the RU5 Tenor Ukulele holds elegance in every aspect of its design.
Endless playability
Sculpted for sleekness. The Ortega Tenor Ukulele is designed for effortless performance, with a warm, homely feel in mind. A satin-finished, mahogany neck fits snug in your hand, so you can immerse yourself into a playing experience of supreme comfort. Be it frequent stage-use, or dedicated practising – you can count on the RU5 Tenor Uke to provide near-addictive playability. You’ll never want to put it down…
