AAA Sitka Ukulele Non-figured Specifications

Ukulele-Tenor: Most 2-piece bookset boards are cut 5″ x 14″, though patterning may vary across the full width and length. These AAA Sitka Ukulele Non-figured tops will pattern (per half) with the following typical dimensions: Lower bout 4.5″, waist 3″, upper bout 3.375″ x 12.25″ long. This represents the standard tenor ukulele pattern we reference. If your measurements approach these dimensions closely, we recommend contacting us before ordering to confirm compatibility with your specific build requirements.
Enhanced Resonance with Old-Growth Sitka Spruce Soundboard Tops
Experience the profound acoustic benefits of old-growth Sitka Spruce through our AAA Sitka Ukulele Non-figured selection. Timber naturally aged for centuries delivers an exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio, crucial for superior projection and a broad dynamic range in your ukulele builds. The natural aging process imbues the wood fiber with enhanced resonant properties, producing a tonal character rich in sustain, clarity, and warmth that is simply unmatched by younger, plantation-grown alternatives. Craft instruments with a voice that truly sings, thanks to this exceptional tonewood selection.
