Details On The Koaloha Concert Ukulele

By Marci Glover


Musicians in every genre of music usually try to find instruments that give them quality sound during performances or at practice. They also endeavor to have instruments that are durable enough to be carried around with them from one venue to another without being destroyed. A KoAloha concert ukulele satisfies both of these requirements and is highly regarded by players because of that.

Artistes across the world sometimes hear all about this brand as they grow up. Other amateurs and professionals sing its praises because they are satisfied and so, these young musicians aim to play the instruments for themselves. Word of mouth has helped this business to grow over the years and now, players from many different parts of the United States use their equipment.

The positive reviews that the instruments have received are not without reason. Every item that is produced in their workshop has a full range from pianissimo to triple forte. This gives players more flexibility and makes it possible for them to easily express themselves with each piece that they play.

Concert Koa ukes are all made in Hawaii alongside many other types of ukes and have received great care at every stage of manufacturing. The musical tools have been allowed the highest level of workmanship so that players will be pleased with the music they can produce. Men and women visit the factory regularly in person in order to tour their surroundings and play the instruments.

The Koa factory tour is offered for free and is just one of the ways in which their dedication to their customers is demonstrated. This operation treats customers who visit like family. The craftsmen are very talented and take lots of pride in their work. They are led by Alvin Okami, a composer, inventor and innovator. Mr. Okami also plays the oboe, sings and is a talented industrial designer.

This is a family operated business and it shows in the way that the team extends their efforts to help build the community outside the factory. Customers can directly speak to Mr. Okami when they have questions. The team aims to share the skills of ukulele building and held a class recently for children affected by Japanese tsunami.

Oahu island is home to what is often regarded as the best ukulele factory in the world. The craftsmen make affordable pieces in different styles. The five point Tenor Scepter model is one of the most well known types that they make. This is known for a sound that is bright, throaty and deep. They are also known for the Pineapple Sunday.

Papa Koaloha builds ukes for the joy of it and is constantly seeking to improve the performance of the instruments and offer something even better to the market. His personal philosophy leads him to aim for instruments that offer musicians a full dynamic range. They can produce quality sound at any end of the spectrum and at loud volumes and this makes musicians love using them even more.
