It’s pretty obvious that Fender’s Fullerton ukuleles don’t look like your average ukulele. The Fullerton Series is a range of ukuleles that take design cues from classic Fender guitars. With the shape of its body and pickguard, this ukulele is inspired by the iconic Jazzmaster. A fun twist on the instrument, the Fullerton Series offers familiar ukulele sound and comfort while paying homage to your favourite Fender guitars.
Jazzmaster-Inspired Design
The main talking point of this ukulele is the way it looks. The offset body, the pickguard, the finish on the body and headstock, and that iconic headstock shape, this ukulele bears a strong resemblance to a Jazzmaster, albeit smaller and more ukulele-ish.
Electro-Acoustic Ukulele
Don’t be fooled by the way it looks, however, this instrument is no novelty. This concert-sized ukulele has that classic, bright and sweet, nylon-string ukulele sound you’d hope for. The bridge is a “no-tie” design which makes string changes a far simpler experience than on a traditional ukulele. The Fullerton series also comes with built-in electronics including a Fender-designed preamp so you can easily play live and record. The preamp features volume and tone controls as well as a handy built-in tuner.
