These are now selling like hotcakes, mastergrade being the most popular so you need to jump in quickly. I had a huge input into this project getting the workforce up to speed with the building of this so that they could fly away and get product ready for NAMM - and what an incredible achievement. I had the benefit of joining CEO Mike Upton and the Studio Manager on a trip to a timber merchant in SOCAL to select figured Korina so I can tell you, they have plenty of different types of mastergrade Korina but is not an infinite resource. Kala has a private stock, very limited of highly figured mango. They also have other wood options which they will bring on stream when the korina model has established itself as a leader in the ukosphere of the electro acooustic ukulele.
FYI: I am still working with Kala. My agreement with them had many aspects and one of them was designing an 'import' model. I am now working on this. There are also other models that I have designed for Kala and over the coming months as market acceptance of this ukulele takes a real hold, I suspect they will want to extend the line by bringing these iterations on board.
Yes folks, you may have seen the last of the Howlett Revelators (well nearly, I have permission to make my wife's instrument) but as fa as Kala goes, you ain't seem othing yet.
