Honolulu, HIFounded 1916

Founded in 1916 by Samuel Kaialiilii Kamaka Sr., Kamaka Hawaii is the oldest and most prestigious ukulele manufacturer in Hawaii. Four generations of the Kamaka family handcraft each instrument at their Honolulu factory from locally-sourced Hawaiian koa wood. The company invented and patented the iconic pineapple-shaped ukulele in 1928, a design still built by hand in Honolulu today.
