Honu Soprano Acoustic Electric Ukulele - 2025 Version

This is a previous-generation model — new old stock, at a clearance price. Brand new and unplayed; the specs below are that generation's.

Perfect for anyone wanting to dip their toe into the ukulele water, our Honu series was designed to provide as much instrument as we could at an entry level price. The all sapele construction provides a warm tone, similar to that of mahogany, but the Honu is more durable and less susceptible to humidity and temperature changes than our solid top models, the Mano and Kohala. The installed UK-500T pickup system includes a built in tuner with 3-band EQ and is powered by included lightweight CR2032 batteries. As with all Honolua Ukuleles, it includes premium features designed to produce the best tone possible at an affordable price, including bone nut and saddle for better clarity and sustain, quality open gear tuners and eco-friendly wood selections.

The Honolua Starter Course comes with it, free, and it's the teaching heart of the $67 Uke Night Method course. Most first ukuleles end up in a closet because nothing came with them; this one comes with the path forward, and has you playing real songs on it within days of opening the case. Six sections, written for someone who has never played, then sixteen play-along songs to work through. Self-paced, and it's yours for good.

Honu Series

Our Honu Series is perfect for the beginner ukulele player. The all-laminate sapele construction provides a full, bright tone and the laminate construction means it is durable and less susceptible to humidity changes. Aesthetically, it's fairly simple, but it never compromises on sound quality.

Size — Soprano

The soprano ukulele is the traditional body size for a ukulele. At 21" long, it is the smallest body of the bunch and provides a bright, punchy tone. Once the most popular option, the soprano is now the most popular choice for kids, or for grown-ups who want the most portable instrument.
