First-rate resonance

A graceful voice. Oozing with rich, authentic character. The Ortega RU5CE 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 RU5CE 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.
