Is it possible that before their increased web presence, Google's algorithm just didn't show these to me? I swear to God those results weren't there in the google search 10 months ago.
Strange. Well a few months ago I picked up a very cheap uke at GoodGuys of a brand "HanoHano". I never heard of that brand before but the uke is just very sweet, and way better than some instruments in the store that cost five times as much, and they had a bunch in the store. When I looked up the name I found a fairly old facebook post where a store announced that they have them, and a brand website with little information:

The salesperson in the GoodGuys store said they were related to the Leolani group as well. I guess they produced a bunch of them years ago and GoodGuys got the rest of the inventory. It's a mystery but I'm fine with having a uke that no-one has heard of before.
It seems they had only one shipment of 150 ukes, so it's a relatively "rare" one:

The address of imports points to Tzu Ling Hawaii Inc. that has a store on Kuhio not far from the hotel where we will stay in March. So I will investigate further.
