TRU-Relief

The TRU-Relief feature of the Kanileʻa KTR ʻUkulele is designed with player comfort in mind, the TRU-Relief is achieved by contouring soundboard and tapered side edges. This thoughtful ergonomic design allows the ukulele to fit comfortably under the arm ensuring a more enjoyable playing experience.

By enhancing comfort, the TRU-Relief enables musicians to focus entirely on their performance, allowing for longer practice sessions without discomfort. This attention to detail underscores Kanileʻa's commitment to creating instruments that not only look beautiful but also feel great to play.

TRU-Reduction

The TRU-Reduction feature of the Kanileʻa KTR ʻUkulele employs advanced laser etching techniques to strategically remove mass from the inside of the soundboard. This innovative process increases the elasticity of the wood, allowing for greater resonance and tonal clarity.

By counteracting the added stiffness that can occur from the bent top design, the TRU-Reduction ensures that the ukulele maintains its vibrant sound quality while enhancing the overall tonal response. This meticulous attention to detail reflects Kanileʻa's dedication to craftsmanship, ensuring that every note played on the KTR resonates with richness and depth, providing musicians with an exceptional sonic experience.

Phoenix Slotted Headstock

The Phoenix Slotted Headstock on the Kanileʻa KTR ʻUkulele is a standout feature that was exclusive to the Platinum models for five years before making its way onto a production model. This unique shape not only adds a distinctive aesthetic appeal but also enhances the instrument's performance.

Equipped with ultra-thin, exclusive Gotoh stealth tuners with a precise 20:1 ratio, the Phoenix Slotted Headstock allows for smooth and accurate tuning adjustments. The slotted design increases the break angle of the strings as they leave the nut, resulting in added tension across the scale length. This enhancement contributes to improved sustain and responsiveness, ensuring that every note played resonates beautifully. The Phoenix Slotted Headstock exemplifies Kanileʻa's commitment to innovative design and exceptional craftsmanship, making the KTR a remarkable choice for any musician.
