With summer vibes still in the air, Peavey Electronics® introduces two ukuleles that are skillfully crafted for warm and welcoming tones. Peavey’s new Composer and Student models offer two different body sizes and scale lengths, premium materials, and high-quality hardware for tuning stability. Whether an experienced player is adding to their setlist or just getting started on their musical journey, Peavey’s two new ukulele options are ideal additions to any repertoire.
To maximize sound projection, Peavey ukuleles are designed with full-body sizes in their respective shapes, a concert for the Composer and a soprano for the Student. The Composer has a laminated spruce top, while the Student offers a mahogany top. Both models have mahogany back and sides and spruce body bracing, a combination that helps to ensure warm tone as well as tonal resonance. Both models come in a natural, matte finish.
While the Composer ukulele has a nearly 15-inch scale length, the Student measures at just over 13.5 inches. Both ukuleles have a 4-string design with industry-standard Aquila Nylgut® strings. The Composer ukulele uses a unique offset soundhole, which provides unrivaled enhanced low-end response, along with 19 frets offering greater range for the player. The Student ukulele has a traditional soundhole along with 12 frets to keep the playing experience more centered and focused.
Peavey stabilizes each ukulele’s center of gravity with a C-shaped okume neck and composite fingerboard with white dot acrylic inlays. The lightweight neck and composite bridge are balanced by die-cast chrome tuners on the stylish headstock. An ABS nut with compensated saddle help provide tuning stability and accurate intonation higher on the fretboard.
Each weighing just over a pound, Peavey’s Composer and Student ukuleles deliver high-quality builds that avoid sacrificing sound quality for portability. They’re the perfect travel companions for summer road trips, campfires, and beyond.
