Kohala Deluxe Solid Top Baritone Acoustic Electric Ukulele

Size chart
Sizing Information

Soprano -Soprano is the smallest of the four ukulele body sizes and is the traditional ukulele size.  The Honu Soprano is perfect for kids learning ukulele or for adults who prefer the brighter tone of a traditional ukulele.

Concert -Concert ukuleles are currently the most popular ukulele body size worldwide.  Bigger than a soprano but smaller than a tenor, a concert uke is the perfect middle ground for most players.  This size is suitable for all ages, though small children may be better suited to a soprano.

Tenor -Tenor ukuleles are exploding in popularity thanks to the full, deep sound produced by their larger body size.  Bigger than the concert, the tenor is great for teenagers and adults that are looking for the most volume from their ukulele and extra space for their fingers on the fretboard.

Baritone -As the name suggests, a baritone ukulele is the largest and deepest sounding of all of the ukulele sizes.  Usually tuned like the highest four strings of a guitar (DGBE), rather than the GCEA tuning found on most ukes, a baritone is great if you have a background in guitar because you won't have to learn any new chord shapes.  They are also very fun if you are a ukulele player looking to experiment with a different tone.

Acacia has long been one of the most popular tonewoods used on higher end ukuleles and it's easy to see why.  Visually striking and tonally rich, each piece of acacia has its own characteristics, making each instrument built with it unique.  For our Kohala Deluxe series, we have paired the all acacia body with abalone style purfling and rosette and flame maple binding.  As with all Honolua Ukuleles, it includes premium features designed to produce the best tone possible at an affordable price, including solid acacia top for greater volume and better tone, bone nut and saddle for better clarity and sustain, open back machine heads for tuning precision and eco-friendly wood selections.

The Highlights
  • Solid figured acacia top, figured acacia back and sides
  • UK-500T pickup system with built-in tuner and 3-band EQ
  • Gold open gear tuners for accurate tuning

Model - Kohala

Kohala Series

The Kohala has all of the aesthetic upgrades of the Mano, including solid top, maple binding, gold tuners, and dual strap pins, but it’s built with acacia wood instead of mahogany. Acacia is revered for its beautiful, full tone and we’ve added abalone-style trim around the body.

    What a find!

    Just received this ukulele and really like it - looks beautiful, sounds great , nicely setup with bonus features. Recently, shopped ukuleles in Maui and this one is the best for the price ( comparable ones $500+ and without solid wood top). The electronics come with batteries installed and ready to play. Excellent customer service; Dave was a big help. Thank you.

    Not only beautiful BUT also a Great sounding instrument!

    Firstly, let me say I ordered this when it was out of stock and waited patiently for its arrival. Delivered to my door by Purolator, the condition of the packaging told me it had been taken care of!
    This is the 3rd Baritone that I have purchased, starting out with a low end one off of Amazon and moving to a Leho a short time later... while I like the Leho THIS UKE blows it out of the water for not only looks but the sound. It has a much fuller resonating sound, easy to play nice action right out of the box (even though it comes with a truss key) I love the bridge pins which will make changing the strings a whole lot easier (I have not mastered the tying knot on the traditional uke yet)

    I would also like to comment on the communication between the shop and myself . I sent Dave a couple of emails while waiting for my Uke to arrive... he was always very responsive and helpful (the contact us) option is NOT a black hole which in todays world is REFRESHING....
    Thanks Again!

    What a wonderful instrument. Love the sound, so rich in tone. It’s a beauty to look at and play. Purchasing my uke from Honoluau was a great experience.
