A Treasure Born of Hawaiian Craftsmanship
The Kanileʻa HNS-T Tenor Ukulele is a masterful creation blending tradition and innovation. Handcrafted with select-grade Hawaiian Koa for the body, its vibrant grains radiate warmth while producing a rich, resonant tone that sings of the islands.
Its solid mahogany neck, paired with an ebony fingerboard and bridge, promises comfort and durability, making every strum a joy. Transitioning seamlessly from visual beauty to superior playability, this ukulele is as much a work of art as it is a musician’s dream.
Details That Set It Apart
Adorned with inlays of Pāua Abalone and Kailua Beach Sand, the HNS model showcases three Honu (sea turtles) on its soundboard, a tribute to Hawaiian culture and artistry. Gold open-geared tuners with a precise 16:1 ratio ensure stable tuning, while the TRU-R Bracing System enhances tonal clarity.
The radiused back adds depth to the sound, projecting your music with power and nuance. Wrapped in a UV-cured natural finish, this ukulele’s beauty and craftsmanship truly shine.
Unmatched Playability and Elegance
From its traditional soundhole to its Kanileʻa Crown Headstock, every detail is meticulously crafted. Ebony bridge pins and Worth fluorocarbon strings deliver clear, resonant notes that inspire every performance. Whether in your hands or its included Oha carrying case, the Kanileʻa HNS-T Tenor Ukulele embodies the spirit of aloha—ready to accompany you on your musical journey.
