Complete With A Plush Lined Very Strong Case The Resonator Ukulele A resonator ukulele or “resophonic ukulele” is a ukulele whose sound is produced by one or more spun aluminum cones (resonators) instead of the wooden soundboard (ukulele top/face). These instruments are sometimes referred to as “Dobro ukuleles,” however the term “Dobro” is currently trademarked by the Gibson Guitar Corporation The resonator ukulele is a descendant of the resonator guitar. The resonator guitar was originally designed to be louder than conventional acoustic guitars, which were overwhelmed by horns and percussion instruments in dance orchestras. A resonator ukulele is generally somewhat louder than a standard wooden ukulele and has a different tone quality and distinctive appearance. Though resonator guitars are often played flat in the lap steel guitar style, resonator ukuleles are almost exclusively played in the conventional manner. Postage UK: FREE. Europe: £40.00.
