The ukulele as we know it took shape in Hawaii, derived from an instrument called a machete that was passed on by Portuguese immigrants. It’s commonly found with four nylon strings and smaller body than the acoustic guitar. The Redwood S10 ukulele is the perfect introduction for both children and adults who're looking to take up a stringed instrument. By combining an comfortable playing feel with tonewoods that yield a punchy and bright response, Redwood has ensured that the S10 is a joy to play. Maple has been used to craft the bridge, providing a responsive yet seamless connection between the strings and body. The nut supports the strings at the head to improve sustain and intonation, whilst the tuners uphold tuning integrity with absolute precision. The S10 has been completed in a dazzling blue finish, giving this particular model an eye-catching visual character. As well as that, the uke is supplied with a matching blue carry bag. That are four common varieties: soprano, concert, tenor and baritone. These vary in terms of size, scale length and tuning. Nowadays, some manufacturers even produce guitar-ukulele and bass-ukulele hybrids, designed to more accessible to contemporary players.

It may be small, but the ukulele is a serious instrument in its own right. Originally from Hawaii, it gained popularity throughout the United States during the early 20th century, then eventually internationally. The ukulele can be heard in a number of musical styles, from traditional folk music to modern pop and everything in between.
