Serial Number: 260012
 
The Tenor Bell-Shaped String ukulele pays homage to the Concert Bell ukulele, originally designed by Sam Kamaka Jr. for renowned ukulele artist Herb Ohta Sr. The Tenor Bell boasts a bigger sound than the Concert Bell with even greater depth and tone due to the larger Tenor body size. The Tenor Bell-Shaped String ukulele is a favorite of Kamaka artist Herb Ohta Jr., and is made in the same vein as the Concert Bell 4-String ukulele, inspired by his father, with its larger bottom resulting in a rich, deep tone.
