So I am back in Honolulu again and took the chance to do the Koaloha factory tour. Lo and behold I was greeted by Mom and Pops at the door and had such a great time there chatting with them before and after the tour. Egan, Pops grandson took us on the tour.
There was a bunch of red labels with mango top and cherry sides and back. And also a solid body tenor in the making! The bracing for the standard models are also changing to the oval looking shape ones that are in the red labels. And there was a batch of old vintage ukes from the 90s that they were working on. All of them had round sound holes. Next year there is going to be a Baritone model too! Lots of exciting stuff. Can’t wait!
