Electric
Option to plug into amp
These ukes can be played either acoustically or electrically. Manufacturers will often take a popular acoustic model and install a pickup on it. Of course, the price increases, but for those with an existing amp setup, it can be a nice add-on. If you don't own an amp already, I would suggest you stick with a classic instead.
