Mahalo Mike, I was wondering about Buona Sera. I'll take my wife there next time we go out. :shaka:

DeG · Jul 29, 2009

Mike, put in a request for solid Acacia and/or Lacewood 8-string and/or Lili'u tenor!! :shaka:

Lori · Jul 29, 2009

Hey Mike... great pics. That flamed Mahogany looks good. And a guitarlele!!! What is the finish like on these... satin or gloss?

Many thanks,
Lori

MGM · Jul 29, 2009

The mahogany is light semi gloss satin the guitarlele was satin.... the built in tuner was actually pretty accurate.

experimentjon · Jul 29, 2009

Wow. Kala is really covering a full range now. I have to say I'm impressed.

Ah! See, we CAN agree on something! It's a lot like a flame maple, a wood I've always liked.

Ahnko Honu · Jul 29, 2009

I wish Kala would make a solid top pineapple.

cocohonk · Jul 30, 2009

How many pineapples do you have?

Thanks for posting these undercover shots up! I'm really loving the flame mahogany look.

Aproteem · Jul 30, 2009
