Details

The HF-3 tenor is our best-selling Kamaka uke, hands down, and we are excited to offer this 5-string variation. The 5-String Nalu ukulele, was originally designed for Kamaka Hawaii featured artist, Taimane. The ukulele was initially offered only as a custom order at the factory in Honolulu, but due to high demand the Tenor 5-String is now available to all. The 5-String is the same body size as the original Tenor with added high and low G notes, providing the best of both worlds for players who like to pick and strum unique tones an octave apart on the G, with even greater sound depth and range. This wonderful new ukulele boasts a nice base note without losing the flexibility to freely play fingerstyle on the single strings.

The Kamaka Nalu’s name is derived from the asymmetrical headstock that includes three tuners on the left side and two tuners on the right, allowing for a more dramatic hand stop on the first string side and giving the hands more freedom and flexibility.

Like all new Kamaka instruments, the HF-35 is impeccably crafted. The top, back and sides are nicely figured Hawaiian koa and they have a thin satin-sheen finish. This shows the koa grain and color to advantage and is yet another example of how the Kamaka crew keeps raising the bar and making their ukuleles even better. Includes a Kamaka hardshell case.
