A Miniature Electric Guitar

Every detail of the Risa ST is the same as a standard electric guitar, but its ukulele size makes it a perfect companion for musicians constantly on the road. Its solid alder body delivers a classic twang, while the maple neck and fingerboard adds plenty of bright characteristics for sparkling highs and thick lows. The hardware is also the same as an electric guitar, from the control knobs and tuners, down to the 4 -addle fixed bridge. Its sleek black finish is accompanied by a classic white pickguard, creating a stunning and unique looking ukulele.

Handmade Risa Pickups

To complete its electric guitar style, the ST ukulele features a set of handmade Risa pickups to deliver incredibly powerful tones. A single-coil sits in the neck position, offering beautifully smooth tones for chunky chords, while a humbucker sits at the bridge for creating searing leads with strong highs. The pickups are controlled by master tone and volume controls, while the 3-way switch allows players to switch between the humbucker and single-coil, or blend them together.
