It sounds fabulous. It looks fabulous. It feels fabulous.
I am really excited to learn how to play my new KLOS Carbon Fiber Ukulele! The design team have done a fabulous job! I love the the all black classic sheik design and the sound is incredibly warm and soft. The sailboat lifestyle is not complete without tropical tunes accompanied by the ocean spray and with this ukulele I will be sure to take it wherever the wind takes me! Thanks KLOS team!
Such a great ukulele, and what a wonderful buying experience! The ukulele is super sturdy yet also super resonant. The sound rivals most of my wood ukuleles. Because of the carbon fiber construction and upgraded carbon spars it is almost impervious to the elements. I don't have to worry about keeping it hydrated in our dry air, or treating it like it's a raw egg like I do with my wodd ukes. It's really built to take it anywhere. Consequently I leave it out and I play more. I'm going to get a wall mount so it's always handy. I purchased my uke directly from the Klos website. It was an easy and straightforward process. I was looking for a different preamp/pickup than the one's they offered and they were more than accommodating with my custom request. We worked out the details and they made it happen. The level of communication and service was stellar. They kept me posted throughout the process and, asked questions when needed. I love the uke so much I ordered a second colored one with low G tuning when they launched that Kickstarter.Top notch product and service, thanks for everything!Keep it Klos!
Easy to play and maintain,
I'm a new Uke player, and someone knew I was set on this one, so she gifted me with it! I'm going to be traveling a lot, full time as a "snowbird," so this will be going everywhere with me. I hope you get lots of time out there to just keep playing every day. Thanks, Klos!
Carbon fiber is an infusion of the most durable fibers and the strongest resin, commonly used in the aerospace industry. This creates a lighter, more durable instrument, with more volume than a similarly sized wooden counterpart.
KLOS carbon fiber is never post-processed—our guitars are naturally beautiful without sanding, polishing or painting. This is the way they come out of the press. There will often be small marks, crease lines, or fiber distortions from this process, true hallmarks of a genuine carbon fiber guitar.
Carbon fiber stiffening rods provide a constant and unchanging force that goes through the whole neck, minimizing the effects of temperature and humidity changes on the neck. If you live in a climate that changes with the seasons, or if you plan on traveling, stiffening rods are especially beneficial.
Carbon fiber is much stronger and more resistant than wood. The one-piece body makes a very strong structure all around, whereas wooden ukuleles need bracing and kerfing at the juncture of the back piece to the side piece to support the thin wood and corners. On the KLŌS ukulele, there are no bottom corners to crack or dent.
The KLŌS ukulele soundboard is a sandwich
panel composed of three layers. The outer
layers are carbon fiber with a lightweight
and low-density composite core material in
between. The result is durability with flexibility,
which produces an amazing sound.
We use the strongest aerospace-grade epoxy
and an internal bolt to create a very strong
connection between the neck and the body,
which is a common area for breaks in wooden
ukuleles. Combined with precision fret leveling
and polishing and hand-crafted playability, the
neck feels amazing to play.
