What's new and exciting at Andy's Ukes
























The new KoAloha's are here and they are as expected..... AMAZING I will be writing more about them once they are set up.

Not only Kamaka but now KoAloha.
After extensive research I believe these are two of the finest Ukulele's on the planet.
While they are both hand build in Hawaii, they are noticeably different from one another.
Note: the Opio line of KoAloha are made in their factory in Thailand using virtually the same construction technique's and trained by the staff in Hawaii.
So whether you are looking for the "Traditional Hawaiian" sound ,the Kamaka or the newer more modern sound the KoAloha we can get them for you, and they are here to try out.

And the Kamaka is here and it's stunning. What a magnificent instrument.
This will give people the opportunity to "hands on" play a true legends in Ukuleles. (By appointment)
While they are not inexpensive I know they sell as fast as they can produce them, so someone is buying them.
At the least I will find out what a "real Hawaiian Ukulele" is like.

The worlds best clip on tuners are now here at  Andy's Ukes, Peterson's clip on tuners. They are not cheap, but then again they are not cheap. Built to last a lifetime and many times more accurate than other tuners. So if you want the best, they are now here at Andy's Ukes.

OK, so the Twisted Woods came in. The all Acacia is very well built but on the heavy side similar to how Pono and Kala build theirs. It's warm and pleasing. And while it lacks some of the sparkle and overtones that an Uber light Uke like a Martin has, it makes it somewhat easier to play. You'll just have to see for yourself.

Update* Nate is progressing and I hope to have the 4 new Ukes in soon.
He specializes in mostly North American woods and his builds are really cool I personally own 2 myself.
If you've ever wanted a custom built Uke talk to me. But like all custom builds you have to be patient.
