USED 1920's Vintage Kamaka Mahogany Soprano w/hard case

Please note that this USED Kamaka Soprano ukulele is available for purchase by UK customers only. It is a part of a special collection from The Uke Room - Vintage Uke Store and can be viewed upon request but will not be on display in our showroom.

This is a historically interesting, as well as beautiful, vintage Kamaka soprano ukulele. You can always identify an early Kamaka, made by Samuel Kamaka himself by the high placement of the soundhole on the body and use of wooden friction pegs. They’re so distinctive and very cool.

It’s also interesting that very early Kamaka ukuleles we’re often made from woods other than koa such as mahogany or monkey pod. This one could be a dark koa or it could be one of the above. We genuinely can’t tell!

After 100 years it still plays well with a straight neck. There is a crack to the side (pictured above) which was is stable and clearly hasn’t moved for years. Fun fact, this one is strung with a new set of Kamaka strings which the previous owner said was the first string change in all these years.

It’s a very special ukulele indeed it will come shipped with a vintage case.
