Professional Sound, Design and Playability Inspired by Kim Breedlove’s Original Design
Kim Breedlove was always at his best when he was designing and handcrafting stringed instruments. From walking and exploring the koa forests of Hawaii – to his home workshop in Bend, Oregon where he experimented with nuances in ukulele body design – the ukulele was one of Kim’s true passions. We have combined Kim’s original tenor body shape with his adoration for Myrtlewood – a tonewood he discovered decades ago growing on the Oregon Pacific Coast – which results in vibrantly stunning tonal energy which delivers more sound than traditional koa ukuleles.
For 2019, Breedlove is excited to introduce this new tenor body shape in our Lu’au Ukulele collection. Crafted with Kim’s body design and stunning Oregon Myrtlewood.
