Wow! You are a fantastic musician. Thank you.

Thanks for the correction. I changed my post to correct it.

Yes, that’s my problem too! I want them both.

You are correct. It’s the elite doghair. I goofed

What is the difference between Japanese-built and Hawaiian-built? Thank you.

I am interested in getting a mahogany tenor. I have a Kala koa elite concert and a koaloha ktm-00 tenor. I love them both. I seem to prefer the richer tone of the tenor. I have an opportunity to get a Kala elite doghair prototype tenor or a anuenue amm3. I can not play them before I get them...

Hello. I signed up for a private session with Aldrine . What should I expect? Do we just talk? Do I play? I am getting very nervous about it. I said I am having problems with my strumming and switching chords.

I have a koaloha ktm-00 that I love. And a Kala koa elite concert. I am thinking of getting a second tenor. I am also wondering if a second all koa - Kala elite koa tenor would sound significantly different from my koaloha. I am rather intrigued by the different sounds different tone woods make...

I chose the 2020 which was the upper one. They both are beautiful but I liked the off centered look and kept going back to it. My husband liked that the best too.

There are two. Both are the newer model. One was made in 2019, the other in 2020. Both are beautiful, about $150 price difference after shipping etc. I am just trying to decide which. It is difficult from just photos. One seems to have mor variations of colour. I must decide quickly before they...

I had posted asking about Kala koa elite tenor vs two others. Someone purchased the koa elite before I decided. In further looking for another kala elite, I found a gorgeous koaloha KLM tenor. Both are supposed to be in excellent condition. The prices are pretty much the same. I can’t try them...

I am a newbie, I don
