Kamaka HF3 Tenor Ukulele
[Solid Koa - 4 String]
Custom hard shell case included
The Tenor 4-String ukulele is the most popular ukulele among our Kamaka artists and entertainers. The larger body size means the volume of the ukulele is louder and the longer scale length results in greater versatility, allowing the performer to play all the way up to the sound hole while still resonating a full, round sound and tone. The larger figure eight body size is also the ideal platform for a variety of unique customizations including different wood options and other features resulting in beautiful new vibrations and tone.
Every Kamaka ukulele comes with a free Kamaka-branded ukulele case that was designed specifically for the exact ukulele model to match the instrument’s body size and length. The vinyl-wrapped, plywood hard case features a soft velvet lining that is padded around the back of the instrument with a protective, arched top cover that ensures the instrument fits snugly and securely when closed. The custom ukulele case also features a convenient compartment to hold tuners, polishing cloths and other accessories.

“Kamaka ʻukulele has always been my instrument of choice. They are very expressive and itʻs the tone that I grew up listening to as a child. I love their ʻukulele and I hope more people will have the opportunity to experience the joy of playing a Kamaka.” JAKE SHIMABUKURO
