Deep Baritone Tone with Stage-Ready Electronics
The Kala Satin Mahogany Baritone Ukulele with EQ (KA-BE) combines the deep, guitar-like tone of a baritone ukulele with professional onboard electronics for amplified performance. Featuring all-mahogany construction with integrated EQ and tuner, this baritone uke delivers rich, warm sound perfect for live performances, recording, and players seeking lower register voicings.
All-Mahogany Construction for Warm Tone
Mahogany is the classic tonewood for ukuleles, prized for its warm, balanced sound with strong midrange presence. The all-mahogany body produces rich, woody tone with excellent sustain and clarity across all registers, developing even richer tonal characteristics as the instrument matures.
Baritone Size for Guitar-Like Range
The baritone ukulele is tuned D-G-B-E (same as the top four strings of a guitar), producing deep, resonant tones that complement vocals beautifully. The 19-inch scale length offers comfortable fret spacing familiar to guitarists, making it easy to transition between instruments.
Onboard EQ for Amplified Performance
The integrated EQ system makes this baritone ukulele stage-ready:
- Built-in preamp for direct connection to PA systems or amplifiers
- Onboard tuner for quick, accurate tuning on stage
- Volume and tone controls for sound shaping
- Professional output quality for recording and live performance
Perfect for Guitarists and Performers
The baritone's guitar-like tuning and onboard electronics make it ideal for:
- Guitarists wanting ukulele without learning new chord shapes
- Singer-songwriters seeking deeper accompaniment tones
- Live performers requiring amplification
- Recording artists needing direct input capability
- Ensemble players adding bass-range ukulele
Premium Components
Quality hardware and components ensure reliable performance:

Satin Finish for Natural Beauty
