Pan Pacific Deluxe All Solid Koa Top Mahogany Figure 8 Soprano Ukulele with Bag
$499
Drawing inspiration from luthier Jonah Kumulae’s award-winning 1915 Pan Pacific International Expo entry, this deluxe soprano is crafted for players who demand a refined, expressive sound with premium appointments. The combination of highly figured Hawaiian koa and richly grained mahogany produces a lively, articulate tone that defines the soprano range.
Its centerpiece is the traditional “figure 8” body style, which provides a classic silhouette and a bright, singing character. An open-pore finish keeps the instrument light and resonant, while the rope purfling, koa headplate, and mother-of-pearl side markers elevate the design with subtle sophistication. The ebony fingerboard and bridge as well as the gold tuners with pearl buttons bring a refined finishing touch. This is an ideal choice for lovers of high end soprano ukuleles and players interested in the history of the instrument.
