Eastman EU2-S Solid Spruce / Ovangkol Soprano Ukulele

Solid spruce clarity with ovangkol warmth in a responsive soprano build

The Eastman EU2-S pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid ovangkol back and sides, creating a soprano ukulele with clear projection and balanced warmth. Solid spruce enhances articulation and dynamic response, which means light fingerpicking remains defined while stronger strums retain headroom. Solid ovangkol contributes a rounded low-mid presence and subtle shimmer in the highs, giving the instrument more depth than laminate construction typically provides.

The soprano body size delivers traditional brightness and immediacy, with compact dimensions that feel lively in the hands. A mahogany neck and flat rosewood fingerboard offer stable playability, and a bone nut and saddle support clean note transfer and consistent intonation. The 13 7/16" scale keeps tension comfortable, while a 2mm action height encourages easy fretting and smooth chord transitions.

Finished in Truetone Satin, the body and neck maintain a natural feel without excess gloss. A premium gig bag is included for protection and portability.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the EU2-S is ideal for players seeking traditional soprano sparkle with the added resonance of solid tonewoods, particularly those who value responsive dynamics and a lightweight instrument for everyday practice or travel.
