Ibanez Black Ice Flat Concert Ukulele

The Ibanez UEW12E-BIF Black Ice Flat is a concert ukulele with a cutaway design that provides improved access to the higher frets. The instrument is made from flamed maple for the top and body, delivering bright tonal characteristics with clear highs and defined lows. The okoume neck with a purpleheart fingerboard and bridge produces a balanced midrange response, while the 35 mm nut width ensures comfortable playability. The open-pore Black Ice Flat finish contributes to quick sound development and gives it an attractive matte black appearance. This ukulele has a scale length of 382 mm and features 19 frets with dot markers for precise finger positioning. The Grover tuning machines guarantee stable tuning across all four strings. For amplified performances, the integrated AEQ-2U preamp system includes a volume control, bass and treble adjustments, as well as a built-in chromatic tuner for accurate pitch calibration. The simple cutaway and chrome hardware complete the professional look. The concert size strikes an optimal balance between the larger body resonance of tenor ukuleles and the characteristic bright sound of soprano models, making it suitable for both practice sessions and stage performances. The standard G-C-E-A tuning provides the traditional ukulele sound profile that players expect from this instrument category.
