Kanile'a Koa Concert and Tenor Ukuleles

Kanile'a Koa Concert K-1

We provide quality Koa Kanile'a Concert Ukuleles. These instruments are meticulously built by skilled craftsmen in Kaneohe, Hawaii. Many folks are familiar with the Kamaka brand uke. While that is a fine ukulele we feel that the Kanile'a with modern techniques and technology produces an even finer instrument.

This picture is a sample of a Kanile'a Koa Concert K-1. Every ukulele is unique because the woods will vary in grain, curls, and color.

Kanile'a Koa Tenor K-1
