When we found out we were going to Maui I knew I wanted a Hawaiian hard wood ukulele for my collection! Then I saw Paula Fuga play with a 6 string ukulele for her new album and I needed to have one of those instead!
When I went, I was a little disappointed because they only had their 6 string ukuleles tuned like a guitar, not a ukulele. With the reasoning that they don't sell that well because there isn't enough demand. I understand though because I still got one!

   Read moreBeen dying to go to this store during vacation to get my hands on a Mele ukulele because they're a Maui exclusive maker. They have a great selection of ukes, banjo ukuleles, guitarleles, steel body ukuleles, and a small case of collector ones.

He helped me pick out a tenor ukulele within my price range. He even mentioned that you can trade in your ukulele at the same value you bought it for and they're also covered with a lifetime warranty. Thanks again for your help Austin it was fun...
