Congrats on the Kamaka and your Senior Member status. I received my Kamaka Tenor a couple of months ago and I love it. Good luck - I look forward to some pics.
 
I was going to guess a Collings because of the pegheads. Congrats and enjoy the Kamaka Mika

I actually sold my Collings to help fund the Kamaka. Loved the Peghed tuners, but I never warmed up to the Collings. I was delighted when Kamaka agreed to install the Pegheds on my special order HF-3.
Will post pics when it arrives!
Thanks,
Mika

I was going to guess Collings too! That's awesome that Kamaka agreed to install them. They are awesome. They were on a Collings and also a Pohaku uke that I tried out at Gryphon strings this past weekend and I was amazed at how easy they were to turn and how light they were. My dad's 8 string Kamaka is super heavy at the headstock end and I bet if they would have used Peghead tuners it wouldn't be bad at all!
 
The wait is over! I happened to be on my lunch break when the uke was delivered. Here are some quick and dirty shots...

Good times are ahead...
