Lanikai Drives to Make You Happy

Since its launch in 2002, Lanikai has steadily established itself as the leading and fastest growing

ukulele brand. Lanikai ukuleles amplify the joy of making music. Our instruments combine ideas and

influences from different cultures, the past and the present, and the broadest range of music genres

and styles. Lanikai is dedicated to all levels of musicians, from players just starting out to multi-inst-

rumental stage performers, and to legends in pop music. Lanikai allows them all to uniquely express

themselves through our instruments.

Lanikai ukuleles are built to balance the traditional with the innovative, the beginner with the expert,

the ornate with the simple. All this is constantly striving to achieve our fundamental goal: Enabling

people to enjoy music.

Flame Maple Series

The Flame Maple ukuleles in our Lanikai Designer series have solid spruce

tops and beautifully figured flame maple backs and sides, real wood bin-

dings, ornate abalone inlays.

Curly Koa Series

Instrument builders in Hawaii derived the ukulele from the Portugue-

se cavaquinho that sailors left there centuries ago. Koa, a Hawaiian

tonewood, became a traditional choice for the ukulele and shaped the

characteristic sound. The Lanikai Curly Koa series uses a variety of this

exotic wood. The grain of the koa is very pronounced, which is why

it is described as “curly”. The CK ukes are offered in all shapes from

Soprano to Baritone. The CK-6E is a 6 string tenor acoustic/electric

uke and the CK-TEQ comes with a cutaway and a pickup system from

Shadow.

For the ukulele gourmets among you, Lanikai has introduced the Lani-

kai SKEC, an AAA grade all solid koa concert uke, with a Fishman So-

nicore pickup/EQ system. The SKEC has the 37mm wide fingerboard,

slotted headstock, abalone inlays and rosette, flame maple wood bin-

ding, and a back 3-tier center stripe (maple-rosewood-maple).

LU - Series

The LU series has become the first choice for many musicians, inclu-

ding performing artists. Lanikai LU ukuleles are available in soprano,

concert, tenor and baritone sizes. These ukuleles with sapele maho-

gany tops, sides and backs offer great playability and Lanikai sound at

an entry level price. For stage use, we offer acoustic electric versions

with cutaways and a pickup/EQ. For those who seek a new playing

experience and a new sound, we also offer 6- and 8-string LU-tenor

models.

Lanikai Takes You from the Beach to the Stage

first choice for players across the globe. The different Lanikai families are consistently offered in the four key

Kohala

You have not dared to start playing the uke yet? Well, then the Ko-

hala by Lanikai - series of ukuleles will start you up in the uke com-

munity. In contrast to many basic ukes and uke shaped objects out

there, the Kohala soprano ukes provide good playability and tuning

stability. We offer three variants: A light stain HU212 and the dark

red-brown stain KU212.

The new KO-S comes with the new Kohala Kolohe headstock. Ko-

lohe is the reckless ukulele rascal who sneaks up on you when you

don’t expect it. If you find someone shaved your dog while you were

out playing ukulele – it was probably Kolohe.

Pick your first Kohala uke - what are you waiting for?

Wondering About 6- and 8-String Ukes?

If you think a 6-string uke is stringed like a guitar, you are wrong!

6-string ukuleles typically use a GCEA tuning. The third string (C) is octaved with a C and the first string (high A) is doubled with a low A. This string configuration is called “inverted”. This allows to produce completely new sound and timbres while using a standard fingering for solo notes and chords. 8-string tenor uku-leles are the uke equivalent of a 12-string guitar. They sound fuller and louder as comparable 4-string models. They use octaved G- and C-strings and double the E- and A-string.More information:www.lanikai-ukulelen.dewww.lanikaiukes.com

Lanikai Koa Package: LKP-C

The LKP-C is all about giving players what they asked for,

a well appointed Koa uke with a rosewood fingerboard

and bridge, gold plated die cast tuning machines, abalone

rosette, body binding and fingerboard board inlays, a gig

bag, and a clip-on tuner at a killer price. A custom wide

bone nut was used to increase the string spacing, making

these ukuleles more comfortable for guitarists who are try-

ing out the ukulele for the first time. This pack represents

unbeatable value from Lanikai.
