Koa Series Guitars

Starting at $5,999 USD

A Showcase for Organic Beauty

Hawaiian koa has long impressed guitar players with its distinctive combination of lush acoustic tone and naturally stunning visual character. In the Koa Series, we treat Hawaiian koa like the superstar tonewood it is, with a range of guitars that showcase both its natural coloration and its dazzling sonic properties. Players will hear a vibrant midrange response with clear, articulate trebles and a dash of low-end warmth for a balanced sound that can adapt across playing styles. Choose from models with spruce or koa tops, all of which feature our tone-boosting V-Class bracing and a gorgeous, artful set of wood-focused appointments that reflect koa's island origins.
