Ohana USA are rewriting their own history these days with luthier Brad Kahabka at the helm. Ohana have always been an import based company using the ukuleles past to create mostly affordable instruments that pay homage to the ukuleles of the 1920's. In the last 2 years we have seen them take giant strides forward.
Brad has impressed us as much as any builder we have come across in the last decade plus. His ideas feel very fresh and we could not wait to catch up with him at the show as well as at the Ohana USA workshop in Long Beach.
We have ordered a Tenor and Baritone Solid Body Electric pair which will go into production soon. We also decided to come back from the show with the Pelican, the similar Mango model and the PT-OCEAN model which has the live edge sides. Look out for those at Southern Ukulele Store in Feb/March 2025.
