G-String Custom Tenor

Aloha,

Here is a G-String Tenor "full custom". This is a somewhat misleading title, as a real full custom would have some feature that is normally not standard on one of these models. A cutaway, extra inlay, different headstock, more strings, etc.. This instrument is the highest level normally available G-String tenor. The body is entirely curly Hawaiian Koa. The top features a binding. Mahogany neck. Abalone rosette, position markers, and logo inlays. Grover gold side gear tuners. Rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Spruce bracing. High gloss finish. The G-String tenor has been one of the best tenor sized ukuleles produced in quantity in Hawaii for many years now. Located in Halawa, the G-String crew makes a wide variety of regular and custom model ukuleles. Easy to play with a soft tone is how I might characterize these instruments. This instrument is now with it's new happy owner, but we can always get this model. Please contact Ukulele Puapua. Mahalo!

Island Ukulele Concert

Aloha,

Here is a Concert Deluxe from Island Ukulele in Kaua'i. Island has recently upgraded their shop equipment, and the results are a more precise and accurate ukulele. The body is all very curly Hawaiian Koa. The neck is mahogany, and the bridge and fingerboard are ebony. Jumbo frets, and abalone position markers and logo inlays. White side position markers, Grover side gear tuners, Spruce bracing, GHS strings, and gloss finish. Island Ukulele also uses a bolt on neck, and there is quite a bit of ovation to the back. This ukulele is currently available for purchase. Please contact Ukulele Puapua. Mahalo!

National Resonator Mahogany Sunburst

Aloha,

Here is an unusual ukulele for everyone to enjoy. This is a resonator ukulele from National. This instrument is somewhat vintage, probably from around 20-25 years ago. It is in excellent condition, and the resonator cone is still in fine condition. The body is all mahogany, with a mahogany neck, and stainless steel resonator well. There is a rosewood fingerboard, and tortoise binding and faceplate. White position markers, and grover style friction tuners. The tone of this instrument is quite clear with a pleasant twang. There are a couple of manufacturers that are currently producing a resonator style ukulele. National and Regal are the most famous, and I can also recommend Mya-Moe out of Colorado. This particular ukulele is in fine condition for it's age, and plays very easily up and down the fretboard. This ukulele is available! Please contact Ukulele Puapua. Mahalo!
