KIWAYA KPS-1K S/N Hawaiian Koa Wood / Made in Japan Soprano
Type: Ukulele

(Below is from the manufacturer's website)
KIWAYA is a brand characterized by its use of carefully selected tone woods, powerful volume that belies its compact feel, rich and solid string resonance, and high playability.

In addition to the bright tone typical of Hawaiian Koa, this model features a resonant body. The slightly milder tone makes it a versatile model for all-around use.

The exquisite neck grip thickness, slightly thinner than average body thickness, and original head shape each have their own characteristics, yet the overall weight balance is excellent, making it comfortable to hold!

The original ukulele frets, adopted exclusively for this series, make firm contact with the strings even with light finger pressure, preventing notes from cutting out and maintaining clear sound.

This HG (High Grade) model is particularly rare, featuring a beautifully figured Koa top!
