Fender Montecito Tenor Ukulele Overview

Montecito Tenor Ukulele Overview by GAK

Inspired by the California home of many celebrities, this ukulele’s screen-ready looks and headline grabbing features could only have one name—the Montecito Ukulele. Constructed completely from koa, this tenor-sized uke has a rich, sonorous tone, that matches its sumptuously elegant aesthetic.

The solid top provides enhanced resonance and sustain, along with incredible warmth and wellbalanced projection. The Montecito’s koa body is complemented by blue-green abalone top binding and a bound back and fingerboard for a refined look. Other features include a no-tie bridge for quick, easy string changes, a bone nut and saddle for superior intonation, an abalone rosette, vintage-style closed-back tuning machines and a 4-in-line Tele® headstock for that unmistakably classic Fender look.

Whether you’re in the under the spotlight or out in the sunlight, playing your Montecito Ukulele lets you know you’ve arrived.

Inspired by Southern California’s famous beaches, Fender’s California Coast ukuleles are the perfect companion for any creative adventure. With stage-ready style and player- oriented features, a California Coast ukulele and its uplifting, inspiring sound is a must-have for modern musicians.

Built for imaginative players, Fender acoustic instruments combine traditional craftsmanship with our extensive, hard-earned guitar-making expertise. Designed to inspire, our acoustic instruments unlock your creative voice so you can share it with the world.

Design Elements include a NO-TIE BRIDGE where the string slots make changing strings on the no-tie bridge a familiar task—no cutting or interlacing required. BINDING/APPOINTMENTS like the eye-catching binding and stunning appointments, like abalone rosettes, complement the natural beauty of our tone woods. 4-IN-LINE TELE HEADSTOCK on the Venice, Zuma, and Montecito models, the headstock replicates the Tele’s iconic headstock shape for a dash of authentic Fender vibe.

Here's some information on Ukulele body sizes:

TENOR
The largest of our body styles, tenor ukuleles have a rich, sonorous voice, while their extended range offers a familiar playing feel and more musical possibilities.

CONCERT
A concert-sized ukulele is slightly larger than a soprano, giving it an extended range that feels familiar to guitarists, and a punchy voice that’s perfect for ensemble work.

SOPRANO
Perfect for beginners or players with smaller hands while still providing classic uke sound, soprano ukuleles are the smallest available body size.
