Kala Revelator Night Owl Acacia Electro Acoustic Tenor Ukulele

The Kala Revelator Night Owl Acacia Electro Acoustic Tenor Ukulele is a striking, slimline instrument that delivers the feel and sound of a full-bodied tenor in a sleek, modern package. Inspired by the visionary designs of UK luthier Pete Howlett, it combines a solid Acacia top, innovative internal construction and a unique Night Owl soundhole to produce a clear, articulate voice with surprising volume and sustain, whether you are playing acoustically or plugged in.

Designed to maximise resonance and playing comfort, the Revelator Night Owl features minimal top bracing, a carbon fibre stabiliser bar in the neck and a bevelled body edge that feels effortless under the picking arm. With 22 frets, a smooth Florentine cutaway and a gloss finish that shows off the rich Acacia grain, this is a tenor that invites you to explore the entire fingerboard and rewards every touch with a responsive, expressive tone.

Acoustic Anomaly Design

The Revelator Night Owl is intentionally slim, yet its clever internal design and light top bracing allow the soundboard to vibrate freely. The result is an instrument that feels compact and comfortable, but projects like a traditional full-depth tenor, ideal for players who want portability without sacrificing acoustic power.

Solid Acacia Top with Night Owl Soundhole

A solid Acacia top provides a full-bodied, pronounced sound with a rich, complex character. The offset Night Owl soundhole is positioned closer to your ears, giving you an immediate, intimate sense of your tone as you play and helping you hear subtle dynamics more clearly in practice, performance and recording situations.

Player Focused Neck and Body

The Okoume neck is precisely machined and flows seamlessly into the body, giving easy access to all 22 frets. Combined with the Florentine cutaway and bevelled comfort edge, the Revelator Night Owl feels fast and inviting under the hands, encouraging extended chord voicings, melodic lines and higher register work without strain.

Stage Ready Electro Acoustic Performance

With a built in passive piezo system, the Revelator Night Owl is ready to plug into an amp, PA or interface whenever you need more volume. The natural, articulate response of the pickup complements the ukulele’s acoustic character, making it a versatile choice for live performance, rehearsal and home recording.

• Slimline Body with Full Tenor Voice - The shallow 1.625 inch body depth and minimal top bracing create a compact, comfortable instrument that still delivers the projection, clarity and sustain you would expect from a full size tenor, perfect for long sessions and travel.
• Solid Acacia Top for Rich, Articulate Tone - A solid Acacia soundboard offers a pronounced, full range voice with strong mids and a pleasing shimmer, giving your chords warmth and presence while keeping fingerstyle lines clear and defined.
• Florentine Cutaway and 22 Frets - The sharp Florentine cutaway and extended 22 fret fingerboard open up the upper register, allowing you to play lead lines, harmonics and advanced chord shapes higher up the neck with ease.
• Passive Piezo Electronics - The built in passive piezo pickup captures the natural acoustic character of the Revelator Night Owl, so you can plug straight into an amp or PA and be heard clearly in band settings, open mics and on stage.
