Full Description
View Full DescriptionThe Luna Look
The Luna Mo'o Concert's stunning artwork, created using state-of-the-art laser etching technology, draws its inspiration from the traditional Hawaiian lizard guardian spirits known as Mo'o. With its intricate pattern of lizards among tropical leaves, along with Luna's signature moon phase fret markers, this ukulele looks every bit as impressive as it sounds.
Luna Preamp
The Luna Mo'o comes equipped with Luna's own preamp, which offers basic sound tweaking for live and rehearsal environments. The easy to use system features slider controls for bass and treble, enabling players to shape their sound to personal preference. In addition, the preamp also features a slider control for volume.
All-Mahogany Build
The Luna Mo'o is crafted entirely from mahogany, which produces plenty of treble tones and an incredibly rich warmth. The mahogany body offers more volume, and a strong balance between high-end and bass, which enables this uke to retain classic ukulele tone. Its mahogany body also delivers a focused, punchy mid-range, thick well-defined tone, and sings sweet sparkling highs with plenty of characterised warmth. Mahogany is used a lot in the acoustic world, because it is relatively economical, durable, attractive, easy to work with, and resonant.
Mahogany Neck Topped With Rosewood Fingerboard
Crafted from mahogany, the Mo'o's neck offers a strong and durable play whilst providing players with plenty of resonance. Many ukulele necks are made from mahogany because the wood responds greatly to picking, strumming, and various finger techniques with equal ease. The neck is topped with a rosewood fingerboard that delivers a bright, warm tone, and sparkly sound that really shines through when using finger picking techniques. Its rosewood fingerboard also offers a smooth and energetic playing experience and is sprinkled with Luna's signature moon phase inlays for added beauty.
Concert Ukulele Body Shape
The Luna Mo'o features a concert body shape, which produces rich and clear sound suitable for numerous techniques and styles of play. The Mo'o has 20 frets and has become the choice of preference for ukulele soloists due to its extended range. The concert shape enables players to perform more technical skills, whilst maintaining classic ukulele tone. In addition, the concert shape is slightly larger than standard soprano size and provides more volume due to more room for sound to vibrate around the body.
Luna History
Yvonne Villiers is an accomplished stained-glass artist who envisioned Luna guitars. Her inspiration for a line of guitars designed to maximise playing comfort came from her mother, Hilda Villiers, a bassist for over 40 years. Whilst watching her mum on stage, Yvonne couldn't help but notice the massive struggle her mum had whilst playing. With her mum being petite and using such a heavy instrument, she used to complain of how hard it was to be a woman and try to play these big bass guitars.
Yvonne then questioned if there were others like her mum that struggled with the same problems and pains. She came up with the idea of a woman specific guitar, uniquely tailored to fit their bodies, their hands, and their musical styles. Yvonne moved on to created Luna guitars, a line of guitars made for female musicians of all ages and crafted with luminous visual beauty to engage women's minds and spirits along with their talent.
Yvonne already had brilliant artistic skills and use of colour, she then applied the same techniques as she did with her award winning stained glass work to her new line of guitars. She is known for using rich colours that shimmer and shine with every movement providing an eye-catching design along with the great musical tones Luna guitars deliver. Yvonne's design expertise has led so many men to respond to Luna's well-crafted, spirit-engaging instruments that the company now creates guitars for both female and male musicians of all ages.
