USED Kanile'a HNS-S Premium Curly Hawaiian Koa Soprano Ukulele w/Deluxe Bag #23511

Premium grade koa Kanile'a ukes are quite rare in themselves but to find a soprano with this kind of streak of sap-wood down the front in the second hand market is a once a decade affair. What a treat we have here for one lucky customer! 

This lovely uke was recently traded in by the original owner and is in excellent condition - a real 9.999/10. I'm tempted to give it a 10/10 but someone out there would probably find something teeny/tiny if they looked hard enough.

This soprano ukulele was a pandemic baby being born in mid 2020 in Honolulu, HI. It's available from us in Bournemouth UK now...

Kanile'a have consistently made some of the best sounding instruments to leave the shores of Hawaii, but with the new TRU-R bracing system, they are now sounding better than ever. This soprano rings with such impressive sustain and clarity, which is almost entirely down to the clever new bracing, which is super light and super stiff. It is still arranged in a "touch and release" pattern which touches only where the wood needs support, so more of the wood can ring for longer and there is less unnecessary wood to soak up the vibrations of the strings.

And the inlay on the top is so exquisitely done, adding that sprinkle of magic to an already amazing instrument!

Please note that we can only sell used ukuleles to customers in the UK.
