No fret buzz thanks to a meticulously executed fret job, ensuring a smooth and effortless playing experience.

The Pickups
2 single coil P90 stye pickups. P90’s are slightly warmer than our singe but retain a bright sound with plenty of zing.
A 3 way selector switch coupled with tone and volume controls, which allows for easy control of a wide range of tonal effects from the ukulele itself.
Discover unparalleled tone with pick-ups that are hand scatter wound and treated with the traditional method of wax potting. The hot bees wax soak enhances the distinctive tone and eliminates any unwanted feedback.

The Sound
This is a solid body tenor electric ukulele with a unique sound that lends itself to being played with over-drive and other standard electric guitar effects. As such it needs to be played through a guitar amplifier.
You can listen to the Tenor Ocelot here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2tXj6a3AhY
The tenor Ocelot used in the demo is the same as the Jazzmistress, it has a different scratchplate arrangement and the addition of a phase inversion switch which was not used in the demo.
The strings are regular electric guitar strings. You can use a set of 11’s and add a 13 for a high g or use the fourth string from the set for a low G. You can use thinner strings but the tuning stability becomes less manageable with thinner strings. Thicker strings are also ok. 12’s give a tight feel but 13’s are a bit too stiff. It comes down to personal preference.
