Aloha y'all. I just found out that I'm going to be a father this coming summer! I'm pretty overwhelmed and excited right now. One of the random thoughts/plans that has crossed though my mind is that I need to start a song book for the baby. All I have in my repertoire is Sweet Baby James. It...

Aloha y'all I finally put my fender and Kamoa up for sale on eBay. Im asking 150 and 125 (or best offer) respectively. I'm on my phone @ work, so I don't have links. My username is [edited: eugene]. I'll try to post later if anyone has any interest. Cheers

Aloha y'all! Just got off stage!!! What an amazing time!!! So this is the real problem. I need pickups!!! I need a sound hole pickup for my Ko'Aloha and one for my Gold Tone banjolele. Any info would be much appreciated. Cheers!

Anyone know of any uke dealers in DC (DuPont circle area) that has any high end ukes? I live in the woods and would like to experience other ukes

Here's a shot from this summer on the lake.

I know that a bunch of y'all have named your ukes. I haven't understood why until very recently. If you name a pet fish, how can you not name your uke??? What are some of your uke's names?

I'm traveling to Albany, NY from Maine for a wedding this weekend. So I was all packed up and ready to hit the road. I had packed my Kamoa, thinking "I probably won't play that much..." I brought it into my office and was strumming away and shortly thereafter realized that I couldn't bear to...

Aloha yall! Does anyone know what brand of strings Ko'Aloha uses to set up their concert ukes? I dont want to change genius...

Aloha ya'll, I have several country songs that I want to play on my uke. Its real easy stuff, but I'm playing from guitar chords. It seems like the high notes and the low notes are reversed. For example: the chord progression for "Gringo Honeymoon" is G Am C, with a couple F's, Em's and D's...

Aloha ya'll! My Koaloha Concert is on a UPS truck in my town and will be delivered to my office THIS MORNING!!! I can't decide it UPS tracking numbers are amazing or inherently evil... Obviously, I am having tremendous difficulty working... I will post pics after I open it and stop jumping...

Aloha ya'll, I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a new ko'aloha concert. I live in Maine, about 300 miles from the nearest authorized dealer. Any suggestions as to which suit will offer the best deal/set up? I'm also in contact with Ko'aloha. Thanks!

Aloha ya'll! I recently bought a Fender Pa'ina and love it! However, I must feed my addiction and buy a ko'aloha, and therefore must sell this one. I'm totally torn about doing this, but can't have 4! The pa'ina is Fender's tenor uke. Its made of solid monogany, has a built-in pick-up, and...

This made my day! Unfortunately, I saw/played my first Ko'Aloha this morning!
