Pan Pacific Deluxe All Solid Hawaiian Koa Figure 8 Soprano Ukulele with Bag
$499
Presenting the Pan Pacific Deluxe ukulele. The ethos of this special model harkens back to the ukulele’s earliest roots in Madeira, Portugal, and the luthiers who pioneered the instrument. The centerpiece of this instrument lies in the traditional “figure 8” soprano body style. This modern classic features all solid Hawaiian Koa construction and a timeless rope-style rosette and purfling of maple and rosewood, finished with mahogany binding. The conversation piece headstock crest features an homage to Petaluma’s history as the home of the World Wrist-Wrestling Championship.

I saw this Figure 8 uke early in the year in a promotional email. I lived in Hawaii for 3 years and had seen ukes like this in collections or museums. But I wondered if this offering would be a gimmick or the real deal. It’s the real deal. Mine has beautifully figured koa all around. The rope purfling is stunning. The nut and bridge are cut beautifully. Action is right on. And you sent me a single-digit serial number that is my lucky number. The wait was worth it. Really great craftsmanship, great tone that will only improve. Mahalo.

The Pan Pacific is made very well - no flaws - and it's beautiful. People always ask about it when I bring it somewhere. The sound is also beautiful. I'm glad that I got the upgraded version. It has more of the old- time look.
