Soprano -Soprano is the smallest of the four ukulele body sizes and is the traditional ukulele size. The Honu Soprano is perfect for kids learning ukulele or for adults who prefer the brighter tone of a traditional ukulele.
Concert -Concert ukuleles are currently the most popular ukulele body size worldwide. Bigger than a soprano but smaller than a tenor, a concert uke is the perfect middle ground for most players. This size is suitable for all ages, though small children may be better suited to a soprano.
Tenor -Tenor ukuleles are exploding in popularity thanks to the full, deep sound produced by their larger body size. Bigger than the concert, the tenor is great for teenagers and adults that are looking for the most volume from their ukulele and extra space for their fingers on the fretboard.
Baritone -As the name suggests, a baritone ukulele is the largest and deepest sounding of all of the ukulele sizes. Usually tuned like the highest four strings of a guitar (DGBE), rather than the GCEA tuning found on most ukes, a baritone is great if you have a background in guitar because you won't have to learn any new chord shapes. They are also very fun if you are a ukulele player looking to experiment with a different tone.
Acacia has long been one of the most popular tonewoods used on higher end ukuleles and it's easy to see why. Visually striking and tonally rich, each piece of acacia has its own characteristics, making each instrument built with it unique. For our Kohala Deluxe series, we have paired the all acacia body with abalone style purfling and rosette and flame maple binding. As with all Honolua Ukuleles, it includes premium features designed to produce the best tone possible at an affordable price, including solid acacia top for greater volume and better tone, bone nut and saddle for better clarity and sustain, open back machine heads for tuning precision and eco-friendly wood selections.
Kohala Series
The Kohala has all of the aesthetic upgrades of the Mano, including solid top, maple binding, gold tuners, and dual strap pins, but it’s built with acacia wood instead of mahogany. Acacia is revered for its beautiful, full tone and we’ve added abalone-style trim around the body.

We are in love with our Baritone Ukulele that we received for our daughter! The style of the wood and details in the border are stunning! She hasn't stopped playing it since it's arrived!
I really enjoy the feel and sound of this Uke. Seems to be very high quality. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that I wish it had a few more options for the design. The outline is a little too sparkly for my liking, but it’s the only option for a baritone with electronics
I had previously owned a Makala baritone ukulele and needed an upgrade to an acacia ukulele and the sound difference was notable. A rich and more fuller sound on the honolua ukelele with longer sustain. With a D’Addario strings it would sound even nicer (ordered one). The ukulele also looks better and the provided gig bag keeps it protected (wished there were more padding on the gig bag). Overall a solid purchase
I was looking for a Baritone Uke, unfortunately on my country, they do not have it on stock, So my only option was to buy it online. But it is fine to play it. Need to relearn the new posisitons.
Good sound and look great!👌
