Ibanez AUP10N-OPN, Open Pore Natural Overview
The AU series stands out with its unique construction method. Unlike most ukuleles, the body of the AU starts as a solid block of wood, routed out to create a single piece for the back and sides. A top is then added to complete the body. This distinctive construction contributes to the instrument’s unique sound and brilliant playability. The AUP10N incorporates special features such as a Stereo Sound Port, Elevated Comfort Armrest, and Edgeless Comfort Heel.
