Dipped in Fender DNA, the California Coast Series Venice soprano ukulele features a comfortable build, an iconic Strat-style headstock and a super-retro sunburst paint-job. The basswood body comes coated in a smooth satin-gloss that's set off by the cream body and neck binding, while the neck has been made from nato, fitted with a walnut fretboard loaded with sixteen frets, and finished with a 35-millimetre-wide nut to set up this uke with snug playability. And as a more-than sweet bonus, all of it comes at a surprisingly affordable price. The Fender Venice Soprano: That Authentic Fender Vibe The no-tie walnut bridge has a pull-through design that cuts string-change times down to a minimum and, combined with the set of chrome-plated open-gear machine heads, ensures excellent tuning stability. Beneath the soundboard, fan bracing has been installed to guarantee excellent resonant dispersion and a richly layered acoustic sound that's packed with dynamic articulation whether finger-picking or strumming.
