Koaloha Ukulele

This ukulele is almost 10 years old.  I got it during our annual trip to Hawaii from a small music store in Maui.  The Koaloha brand is handcrafted in Hawaii using the only wood of choice for these instruments -- koa.  I really like the pineapple shape of the headstock, the custom Koaloha logo on the tuning heads.  I might get rid of all my guitars but not my ukulele.  Our 2003 vacation to Maui was memorable in many ways and every time I play this simple instrument, I take a trip back to a special time.
