Its stylish cherry sunburst finish creates a stunning and unique look, ensuring you’ll stand out in any environment.

Handmade Risa Humbuckers

To complete its electric guitar style, the LP ukulele features a set of handmade Risa humbuckers to deliver powerful tones with plenty of punch. The two humbuckers are controlled via the master volume and tone controls, while the 3-way selector lets players switch between them of blend them together. When in the neck position, the humbucker provides bright, crisp tones perfect for searing leads, while the neck humbucker is suited for chugging chords and creating thundering lows.
