While Harmony guitars have been wielded by modern contemporaries like Clairo, Lianne La Havas and Mateus Asato, the brand has never lost sight of its promise to be a well-loved part of anyone’s musical journey. Testament to this promise, the brand introduced the Harmony Foundation Series for those who are just starting their journey into music or for the muso who’s always on the move. The series presents a variety of instruments created for an inviting and inspiring playing experience, starting with Harmony’s stellar range of ukuleles. 

Setting themselves apart in the market, the Sierra ukuleles take their cue from natural landlocked wonders. They reverberate with warm, lush tones that are reminiscent of a laidback lakeside retreat, or a homey mountain cabin. These gorgeous ukes are built for the road, making them the perfect pint-sized instruments for your next trip. Before you rush off to meet your new travel buddy, let’s get to know Harmony’s newest arrivals a little better.

Not forsaking the timeless beauty of an all-wood build, the Sierra is quite simply put, a mahogany beauty. Owing to the wood’s medium weight and open grain, there’s a significant helping of depth and resonance in each strum. Its mahogany body also helps curb any overwhelming brightness, focusing on punchier midranges and a sizeable amount of treble. An all-purpose sound that lends itself beautifully to a variety of genres, the Sierra comes in a trio of sizes – soprano, concert and tenor. 

The Harmony Foundation Series Sierra Ukulele is:

  • Crafted from mahogany wood with a satin finish for smooth, warm tones.
  • Equipped with high-quality Aquila strings and paired with a Harmony carrying bag.
  • Designed for superb portability and durable construction – ideal for creating new sounds and memories anywhere.

The Harmony Foundation Series Sierra Classic Ukulele boasts

  • An all-mahogany body with a satin finish for rich, authentic tones.

Harmony Foundation Series e-Sierra Ukulele

Just because ukuleles are small, doesn’t mean they can’t be loud. The e-Sierra carries with it the quintessential tones of its traditional counterparts, except with an electric pickup. Play it on its own, or plug it into a separate amp, the e-Sierra is the ultimate ukulele for the most versatile performers. And just so no one gets left out, the e-Sierra also comes in a trio of sizes – soprano, concert and tenor.
