I see that the new Maui Music's are coming out..
Gryphon has some on their site and I know The Ukulele Site(aka HMS) has some coming too..unless they already sold them

so new at Gryphon no pictures yet..i am surprised at the prices..way lower than I thought they would be
 
They look fantastic. Huge fan of Maui Music ukes, and they're pretty underrated around these parts! Peter Lieberman is doing some of his best work now, regardless of the "pre-fire" hype.
 
I have a pre-fire tenor..only difference seems the top on mine was thinner than the ones now..but could be my imagination..
see if we can get Peter to answer..

I have played about 15 new Maui Music's at Gryphon and Pua Pua..they are really nice and Peter doing way different things now..all for the best
 
HMS getting them too. Hmmmmmmm...................
 
Yeah, I would love to hear from Peter directly...The only ones that say that pre-fire are better are the ones that own one!! If I own one, I would believe it too

he told me it's all hype and that if anything the current ones are better than ever--esp bc he's making them by himself now

Gryphon has pictures up on their site now, but I don't see any sound samples for the newer ones. The uke in the HMS video above sounds awesome!
 
Bumping this up for Aaron's sound sample of my new MM. Again, I think that it sounds a little livelier now with the Worths on it, but it is hard to tell from a recorded sound sample.

Hey Bo my 1998 Maui Music tenor has a round sound hole and the retro headstock like Dana's and friction tuners.
.does yours have an oval soundhole? and geared tuners..

Haha,
I don't build, wouldn't mind trying though. Having one built for me with my specs, designs and details.............soon done..........
Will bring it to Honolulu in July................
 
Okay, if you insist. :D Kahones optional. :D As always, Andrew and the HMS crew are super-stars!

 
Kathryn! Kathryn!! (Looks at pictures on HMS. looks at video of Corey playing it. rubs eyes in disbelief.).
Wait...how'd you do that?
