Description
Born of Fire and Forest
The Kanileʻa K-1 GL6 Koa Guitarlele carries the soul of ancient koa trees and the precision of modern luthiers. Crafted entirely from Select Grade Hawaiian Koa, its tone is warm, rich, and endlessly resonant. And yet, it feels effortlessly alive in hand.
Crafted for Bold Journeys
Its 6 strings whisper and roar with equal strength, thanks to the smooth, clear Worth Fluorocarbon strings. The 20.06" scale offers familiar ground to guitarists, while also inviting new adventure for ʻukulele players ready to explore.
Details That Matter
From the Kanileʻa Crown headstock to the white Mother of Pearl inlays, every feature is forged with care. Not only that, but the ebony fingerboard and bridge give it a sleek look and smooth playability. Even its radiused back adds projection with grace.
Meant to Be Played, Built to Last
The Kanile'a K-1 GL6 Koa Guitarlele's UV-cured natural finish preserves the koa’s golden hues, while open-geared chrome tuners offer reliable precision. Moreover, the single-piece mahogany neck grants a grounded feel. This instrument doesn’t just rest—it sings, it journeys, it thrives.
