aNueNue Lani Koa Long Neck
The perfect combination of sound and comfort, dressed in the most iconic wood. The aNueNue Lani is a "Soprano Long Neck" ukulele: it has the compact body and bright sound of a soprano in Koa, but with the longer, more comfortable fretboard of a concert. With its renowned aNueNue internal construction, it is a versatile instrument with a unique character.
The Sound of a Soprano, the Comfort of a Concert
The aNueNue Lani Koa solves an eternal dilemma for many ukulele players: choosing between the punchy, traditional sound of a soprano or the comfortable playability of a concert. This "Long Neck" model offers the best of both, using the most legendary wood of Hawaii, Koa. The soprano-sized body ensures that bright, attack-rich tone, while the concert-scale neck provides a more spacious fretboard, better intonation up the neck, and superior overall comfort.
Why Choose the aNueNue Lani Koa Long Neck?
- The Best of Both Worlds: Enjoy the "barky" and defined sound of a soprano without sacrificing comfort. The concert scale length (15") increases string tension slightly, contributing to an even more powerful sound and flawless intonation all across the rosewood fretboard.
- The Legendary Aesthetics of Koa: The Koa body is a feast for the eyes. Its warm grain and color variations make each instrument a unique piece. The satin matte finish enhances the natural beauty of the wood and provides a wonderful tactile sensation.
- Superior aNueNue Construction: Although made from laminate Koa, this ukulele sounds like a higher-category instrument. This is thanks to the special internal bracing, designed by aNueNue after studying early historical ukuleles, which allows the top to resonate with surprising richness and volume.
- Complete, Quality Package: The ukulele comes with a high-quality padded gig bag, complete with a shoulder strap and a large pocket, to transport your instrument in total safety.
Who Do We Recommend It To?
This is the perfect instrument for:
- The musician who loves the bright sound of a soprano but desires the comfort and intonation of a concert neck.
- The player with larger hands who finds traditional soprano necks too cramped but doesn't want to give up the classic tone.
- The artist looking for an instrument with a unique character, combining an iconic aesthetic with a highly sought-after hybrid configuration.
- Anyone who wants a ukulele with a professional feel and a traditional Hawaiian sound.
