I went to HMS this morning, intent on buying a KoAlana soprano only to discover they have sold out. Anyone have any insider info on when or if there will be more stock?
Andrew,hey girl! if your on oahu drive up. we have at the store.
we shoot for an online experience with no drawbacks, so we pay return shipping with any warranty issues. even international. these have commonly had issues in dry or cold climates so we aren't shipping out any more. if on island come up or call.
I have a koalana, good stuff, but they're like me and prefer Hawaii weather.
koaloha's don't have any issues in other climates, perhaps you could splurge on a pikake?
Andrew,
I live on the Mainland now and bought a Koalana concert from you guys which you shipped to Utah. Now that is dry! I have had zero problems in the 7-8 months, I suspect because we have a whole house humidifier. That thing became my daily player and I am totally in love with it. Would you be willing to make an exception and sell me one? I know I would be taking my chances.

As usual, everyone has been tremendously helpful. Andrew I will send you an email.
For anyone thinking about buying a Koalana, check out the Koaloha website (http://www.koaloha.com). They have pics up for the next generation of Koalana ukes. Looks like they'll be offering both concert and soprano sizes in either koa or mahogany.
I have a Koalana concert from the current batch, and I absolutely love it. I've had some issues in the dry and cold climate that is Chicago winter--but, as long as I maintain the humidity at around 50%, it does fine.
I'm waiting on one to become available second hand on the marketplace... but it seems nobody wants to part with their Koalana They must be good!
