Silvertone 853E Electro-Acoustic Ukulele, Natural Satin

Full Description

The Silvertone 853/NS is the first ukulele reissue that Silvertone has released, and many would find it surprising that a brand famous for big sounds ever released as small a package as this. Fear not, as the 853 was a favourite choice for ukulele players in the 50s, and the reissue brings it back for another generation.

Mahogany Construction

Its concert body with Mahogany top, back and sides gives it a warm, light tone, perfect for the positive vibes emitted from a Ukulele’s charm.

Vintage Aesthetics

Tortoise shell binding on the top and back give a genuine vintage look whilst a quality Rosewood fingerboard produces a warm tone and great playability. The updated tuners and build quality make this an instrument that will last, and its Natural Satin finish gives it a timeless design.

Stage Ready Electronics

The 853E features a sophisticated Fishman preamp system offering control, performance and quality in a compact package. The built-in tuner with LED display allows for convenient tuning anywhere.
