Description
Octopus Academy Series
Octopus has been providing high quality beginner ukuleles for almost a decade, and the Academy series 'octopus academy soprano ukulele' from octopus ukulele carries this tradition forward. This is a serious, high quality octopus ukulele instrument, and just as good as many much more expensive models.
There's a big difference between a serious, well made string instrument like this and an inferior one. A well made instrument is easy to tune and will hold its tuning; its fret board is true, giving accurate tuning for each fret across all the strings; it has an open, resonant tone; it feels good to hold and it's a pleasure to play. Having a high quality instrument is especially important for a beginner, as having a good one can make the difference between the beginning of a lifelong passion and a passing fad.
The Octopus Academy ukulele range is available in a range of colours and all are made to the same high quality.
Build Quality
Octopus ukuleles are built to last. An improved production process and care and attention to all the details results in the highest quality sound and finish yet. A classical guitar style bridge is accurately bonded to the body for excellent sound production; tuning pegs are geared like a guitar so they hold their pitch for longer. All side walls are fully lined for stability, sound projection and a high quality appearance. All the edges and every fret have been smoothed, to make the instrument a pleasure to hold and play. This is a build quality and a finish that surpasses many more expensive ukes.
Aquila Nylgut® Strings
The quality of the strings is also very important - for tone, accurate tuning and for comfortable playing. Each ukulele comes fitted with Aquila Nylgut® strings as standard - produced exclusively in Italy and the best in the world for intonation and tone.
Free Carry Case
Each octopus academy soprano ukulele is supplied with a free gig bag, which acts as a carrying case, and will also protect the instrument from scratches, spills and splashes when not in use.
