Graziano Tenor Plumeria Custom in Maple and Spruce

Aloha,

Here is a very special Tenor from Tony Graziano in Santa Cruz, California. Mr Graziano has been building custom ukuleles for over 20 years, and his eye for detail is evident in his work. This ukulele has flame maple back and sides with a tightly lined Sitka spruce top. Ivoroid binding on the top, back, fingerboard, and headstock. Ebony bridge, fingerboard, headstock, and heelcap. Full Abalone inlay on the top, back, bottom, rosette, faceplate, and back-ceter strip. M.O.P. Plumeria motif position markers at the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 10th, 12th, and 15th frets, as well as on the headstock including logo inlay. Solid curly maple neck. Peghead vintage style geared tuners. High gloss finish, and Aquila strings. This is one of the finer Graziano ukuleles that I have come across. I was graciously allowed to photograph it by a customer of Puapua's. Mahalo!

Hawaiian Style Soprano by G-String 1st Generation

Aloha,

Here is a Hawaiian Style soprano from G-String ukulele. This is from the first generation of Hawaiian Style ukuleles. These instruments are becoming increasingly hard to come by. Especially in this condition. This ukulele is about 10 years old. The body is entirely Hawaiian Koa, and the neck is mahogany. Koa faceplate with Hawaiian Style laser tattoo. Grover tuners. Rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Hawaiian Style logo decal as the label. It is interesting to note that the Hibiscus design generally associated with the Hawaiian Style model has yet to make an appearance at this time. Thanks to a Puapua daily lesson student for allowing us to photograph her instrument. Mahalo!

Ko'olau 100SP Pineapple Soprano

Abalone rosette and position markers. M.O.P. logo inlay. Grover sidegear tuners. Spruce bracing. Satin nitro finish. Ko'olay hardshell pineapple case. This ukulele is very pretty, and is tiny and easy to play. I would recommend it for beginners as well as for those that enjoy a nice, light soprano.

Kanile'a K-1 Concert DLX Thin Curl

Aloha,

Thank you for your patience. I have been busy with work, and playing music lately. Here is a Kanile'a Concert K-1 Deluxe with a very thin curl in the Hawaiian Koa. Kanile'a ukuleles are always amongst the most attractive instruments being made in Hawaii. Lately however, the koa that has been coming out of that factory in Kane'ohe has been just amazing. This instrument is very indicative of the grade of wood that has been used on DLX models consistently for the last few months. So........ now is the time to get that Kanile'a concert or superconcert that you have been drooling over for the last year or two. =) This instrument is made out of Hawaiian Koa, with a mahogany neck. The fingerboard and bridge are rosewood, and the bridge is of the pinset variety. Maple logo inlay. Grover sidegear tuners. Abalone position markers. UV cured high gloss finish. Nubone nut and saddle. Aquila strings. TRU bracing. This ukulele, and others like it are available at Ukulele Puapua. Mahalo!
