Kamaka HF-3 Solid Hawaiian Koa Tenor Ukulele w/Hard Case #240989

Kamaka are responsible for many of the Ukulele designs, shapes and styles we take for granted today. With a rich long history of Ukulele innovation going back to 1916; many consider them the folks that invented the Tenor Ukulele around 1926... the uke you already own and love will undoubtedly borrow from an original Kamaka Ukulele design in some indirect way.

Still based in Hawaii and the oldest and most established of the Hawaiian K brands; holding and feeling a standard Kamaka Ukulele is the most direct link to the inception and earliest days of the Ukulele. A HF-3 is the most true to tradition 'style 0', high end Tenor ukulele out there with its simple Hawaiian Koa top, back and sides that have each been individually tuned by Kamaka as they went through production. There is something simple, confident and elegant about a Kamaka with really the only important changes of note in the last century being the machine heads which are a Japanese made Gotoh Planetary geared tuner and a synthetic TUSQ material nut and saddle on the modern ukuleles.

A small scale Hawaiian Koa uke, made by a team that love what they do in the literal and spiritual home of the Ukulele.
