Soprano - The four string Soprano has been and will always be the classic vision of what a ukulele is. It's small size corresponds with the many players of yesteryear who made the ukulele so famous.

Concert - The concert four string is considered to be the most popular 'ukulele. Most advanced players choose the concert because of its bigger scale over the standard (soprano) size.

Super Concert - The Super Concert is a deluxe hybrid ukulele. It combines the easy playability of the 17-inch Tenor scale with the clear and crisp "classic" sound of a Concert body.

Tenor - Every type of player enjoys the Tenor ukulele and it's full-bodied sound. The Koa 4 string Tenor is the most popular among the local island players.

Baritone - The Baritone ukulele is the most unique in the ukulele family. They carry a 22 inch scale and follow the same tuning as the first four strings of a guitar. Because of their similarities to the guitar, Baritone ukuleles are very popular with guitar and banjo players.


Koa Wood - Koa (Acacia Koa) is unquestionably Hawaii's most prized wood. Hawaiians have always valued Koa for its beauty and durability. Koa still remains the premier Hawaiian timber for ukuleles, furniture and other woodcrafts. Its diversity and shortage has made Koa prices soar. With an ongoing reforestation program, and sensible logging, Koa will always be available. Koa's use for instruments is superb. It has a "tap-tone" quality that is almost second to none.

South American Mahogany - South American Mahogany (Swietenia Macrophylla) has been a prime choice of tonal wood for many years. Its tonal response is similar to Koa with a slight "mellowness" that can be favored by an experienced players ear. Its strength properties are excellent which allows for this Mahogany to be a prime choice for instrument body and neck material.

Sitka Spruce - Sitka Spruce (Picea sitchensis) has a preferred use for soundboard material. Its strength and tough elasticity are highly valued. "Bear Claw" Sitka Spruce is rare. It acquired its name from the bear like claw marks in its grain. Sitka Spruce colors range from white to pink to light brown. Sitka Spruce offers a rich, mellow tone.
