The ukulele is becoming increasingly popular, but Sweetwater ukulele players have found that wooden ukuleles can sometimes lack the projection needed for modern band settings. That’s why they’re quick to recommend this Gold Tone tenor-scale brass ResoUke. With its all-brass body plus metal biscuit cone resonator, the tenor-scale brass ResoUke ensures you will be heard, no matter what. It’s also comfortable to play, thanks to its rosewood fingerboard and 17-inch mahogany neck with 19 frets. Plus, the ResoUke features Kluson-style tuners for stable intonation. Get ukulele tone that will cut through the mix in the studio or onstage with the Gold Tone tenor-scale brass ResoUke.





Gold Tone: a legacy of music





The origins of Gold Tone go back to the folk music scene of the ’70s, when musicians Wayne and Robyn Rogers opened a small music shop. Fifteen years later, they founded Gold Tone Banjos in Titusville, Florida. Their first product, the TB-100 banjo, was designed by Wayne. As demand for this critically acclaimed instrument increased, the company expanded its offerings to include a selection of fretted instruments that combine modern innovation and timeless vintage design. The goal? To inspire all musicians, from beginners to professionals, to realize their musical dreams. Today, Sweetwater is pleased to offer you Gold Tone’s exciting range of 4-, 5-, and 6-string banjos, banjo ukuleles, metal- and wood-bodied resonator guitars, Weissenborn Hawaiian steel guitars, and mandolins.
