Mahalo MM2E Natural Ukulele da Concerto

Mahalo MM2E Concert Ukulele — All-Solid Tone with Stage-Ready Electronics

The Mahalo MM2E is a concert ukulele built for players who want genuine all-solid-wood tone without losing on-board amplification. A solid Red Cedar top pairs with a solid Mahogany body, while the integrated MEQ2 preamp system lets the same instrument move from the living room to a small stage with no extra gear. This concert ukulele sits at the top of Mahalo's Master Series lineup, where every detail is built around resonance and stage practicality. Hand-built construction and a slotted headstock with abalone inlays give the instrument a boutique-instrument feel. Each unit ships with a heavy-duty carry bag.

What Sets the Master Series Apart

Two design choices push the MM2E above typical concert ukuleles in this tier. Mahalo's ToneFlow bracing gives the solid Cedar top a more responsive, even vibration across the soundboard, which translates into a fuller low end and clearer note separation. The slotted headstock with flamed maple veneer and inlaid abalone logos is paired with Waverly-style tuners and ivoroid buttons.

Specs That Shape the Sound and Feel

The wood combination, hardware, and electronics on this model work together to deliver a balanced, amplified concert ukulele tone.

• Top: Solid Red Cedar — warm, immediate response with rich overtones
• Back and Sides: Solid Mahogany, arched back — adds warmth and projection
• Neck and Fingerboard: One-piece Mahogany neck with Amara Ebony fingerboard — stable feel and smooth note articulation
• An under-saddle piezo pickup with Mahalo MEQ2 2-band EQ and built-in LCD tuner provides stage-ready tone shaping and precise tuning capabilities.
• Strings: Aquila Super Nylgut — bright, balanced concert ukulele tension out of the box

Who this instrument suits best

This concert ukulele is the right choice for intermediate and advancing ukulele players who want an all-solid instrument with a built-in pickup and tuner for performing live or recording at home. Singer-songwriters benefit from the MEQ2 preamp's 2-band EQ, which shapes the plugged-in tone without extra pedals. Players moving up from a laminate ukulele will hear more sustain and note definition.

The Mahalo Master Series

The Master Series is the company's all-solid-wood flagship line, designed to bring out the finest in materials, craftsmanship, and tone. The MM2E is the concert-size, electric/acoustic version, fitted with the MEQ2 preamp so the same instrument works for quiet practice and amplified performance.
