KoAloha or Kamaka tenor?

Quick update:

I just bought the Kamaka! I went back for another session before the weekend and noticed something about the Kamaka that I hadn't noticed before -- the heel stamp date just so happens to be the exact day I first set foot in Hawaii. It was just too perfect and serendipitous and personal to let go, given that we stayed less than a quarter mile from the factory during our stay there, and it's so fun to think of this exact instrument being finished by those folks at Kamaka while I got my very first taste of the islands.

I'll do a new uke thread at some point with pics this weekend, but I thought that was a fun resolution to this question I posed!

Congrat's! That would have been my choice between the 2. Did you ever play a Kanile'a? Do you ever play with the Boulder Ukulele Group? I played with them a couple times about 4 years ago. Used to work in Boulder, lived in Lafayette. The meetup group in Ft. Collins is fun too.
 
interesting thread, I had the same question
