Koa series
Hawaiian koa’s exotic beauty has inspired new
all-wood appointments to blend naturally with
koa’s rich, organic charms. Our tropical Island
Vine fretboard inlay incorporates a delicately
flowing design with strategically arranged
plumeria flowers that double as fret position
markers. Rosewood binding’s complementary
touch is paired with a different rosette and
contrasting top trim based on the soundboard
wood: figured blackwood with spruce tops,
and curly maple with koa tops. As much as any
other series, our sublime koa models evoke a
strong sense of place, as wood and design
meld together into a cohesive whole.
