Description
Mino’Aka means “smile” in Hawaiian, and that’s exactly the reaction this concert ukulele tends to get. Fender built it entirely from laminated koa – top, back, and sides – which gives it that warm, singing tone islanders have chased for generations. A cutaway body shape opens up easy access to the upper frets, while tone bar bracing keeps the voice lively without sacrificing warmth.
Look closely and you’ll spot the details that separate this from a basic student uke: aged binding around the body and fretboard, an acrylic abalone rosette, and a three-piece mahogany neck topped with a Telecaster-style headstock and gold-screened logo. The rosewood fingerboard spans 19 frets with simple dot inlays, and everything is finished in high-gloss lacquer for a polished look.
Because it’s wired for the stage, the Mino’Aka CE carries a Fishman Kula preamp and pickup system with a built-in tuner, so you can check pitch and dial in bass, middle, treble, and volume right on the instrument before plugging into an amp or PA. It ships strung with Aquila Nylagut strings for a smooth, consistent feel.
