Pono UL Tenor Guitar

[ponoguitar]

We have finally finished the first of our new steel string Tenor Guitars.
Overall length is 31 1/2" and body width is 11 1/4" wide.

In a standard tuning (DGBE) medium gauge strings (.035, .026, .017, .013) are preferred.

Light gauge in standard tuning is ok, but not as much depth and projection.

This size and scale (21.4 can be tuned up three steps, to F-A#,D-G and then light gauge strings (.032,.024. .016, .012) is suggested.

Current models are:
UL4-20 Mahogany with a Cedar top
UL4-30 Rosewood with a Spruce top
UL4-40 Ebony with a Cedar top
UL4-40SP Ebony/Cedar with Abalone top purfling

Top woods are optional spruce or cedar, but the above is what we currently have in production.

We appreciate any input and suggestions, John
