The MU55CE is one of the first in a line of all-solid wood ukuleles from Alvarez. They're produced using bamboo – a wood that’s not endangered due to its common nature and exceptionally fast-growing process. This makes the model a truly sustainable option for the discerning modern-day musician.
Benefitting the Ecosystem
The aforementioned wood selection doesn’t just benefit the environment either; bamboo is known for being a tone wood with excellent sounding properties. Its affordable too, resulting in a uke which delivers great tones at an extremely reasonable price point!
Plug in & Play
Alvarez electronics even allow you to plug in and play if you want to, offering a contrasting, amplified tone. You can then use onboard EQ to dial in your preferred sound using the bass, middle, treble and volume controls! Not to mention the built-in tuner; there’s no excuse for being out of tune again!
