{"product_id":"regent-soprano-ukulele","title":"Alvarez RU22S Regent Series Soprano Ukulele","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA Warm, Thoughtful Start to Your Ukulele Journey\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've been looking for a soprano uke that doesn't feel like an afterthought at this price, the Alvarez RU22S is worth a closer look. Alvarez built their Regent Series with the same design philosophy they apply to their higher-end instruments — the idea being that your first ukulele shouldn't have to sound or feel like a compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe all-mahogany body gives the RU22S a warm, focused tone that's well-suited to the bright, punchy character soprano ukuleles are known for. Real bone nut and saddle — not plastic — improve intonation and sustain in a way you'd normally expect to find on instruments costing significantly more. It's a small detail that makes a noticeable difference under your fingers and in your ears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're picking up a uke for the first time or adding a compact soprano to your collection, the RU22S brings genuine craftsmanship to an approachable price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt With the Details That Matter\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlvarez uses a dovetail neck joint on all their ukuleles — a construction choice that strengthens the connection between the neck and body and helps transfer vibration more efficiently across the instrument. Pair that with their modified fan-style bracing, and you get a uke designed to be both responsive and projecting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe slotted rosewood bridge is another thoughtful touch. The slotted design helps lock strings in place during changes, keeping setup time short and playing time long. It's one of those features that feels minor until you've changed strings on an instrument without one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eComponents You'd Expect on a Higher-Shelf Uke\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rosewood fingerboard and headstock overlay give the RU22S a clean, consistent look, while the mahogany neck keeps the feel familiar and comfortable. Closed-back tuning machines help keep the headstock tidy and the strings in tune reliably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlvarez notes that their Regent Series shares the same quality components as their Artist and Masterworks lines — including the real bone nut and saddle. That's not a minor claim; bone is a denser material than plastic and contributes meaningfully to the instrument's resonance and tuning stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soprano\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mahogany with satin finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mahogany with dovetail neck joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slotted rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut \u0026amp; Saddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Real bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Closed-back premium tuners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Modified traditional fan-style\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectronics:\u003c\/strong\u003e None (acoustic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alvarez\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e RU22S Regent Soprano\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e RU22S\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
