Ortega RUPA5 Concert Ukulele

With fantastic brightness and a strong mid-range tone, this Bonfire Series ukulele is made with a spruce top, sapele back/sides and mahogany neck—all in natural satin finish. Top grade walnut is used for the fretboard and bridge that adds a high-end look with smooth feel. For visual elements, we used a photogenic tortoise style ABS binding and topped the body with a laser etched “Butterfly and Grass” design near the bridge.

Chrome plated die-cast tuning machines with synthetic black buttons give the ukulele a clean and modern look while being easy to operate. This design keeps the gears sealed from outside elements for added durability. These tuners allow for fast re-stringing, precise tuning adjustments, and they have an effortless touch when turning the buttons. Here, you can also see the mahogany neck and headstock with natural wood grain coming through.

The concert size (scale 380 mm) blends crisp string articulation with full tonal development from the 68 mm deep body for a classic ukulele sound that can be used in virtually any setting. This unique pineapple shape brightens the tonewith a presence that can easily fill a room wuth sound. The Bonfire Series pineapple ukulele is equipped with four strings (high G tuning: G,C,E,A). These white nylon strings are designed for warmth and punchy tone.
