Exquisite

The Kanileʻa KG-5 Guitar is an exquisite creation, crafted with only the finest Master Grade Koa. Every piece of wood is hand-selected for its superior grain, color, and resonance, ensuring that this instrument not only looks stunning but also produces a rich, vibrant sound that reflects the natural beauty of Hawaii. With its carefully sourced Koa, the KG-5 embodies the pinnacle of craftsmanship and tonal perfection, offering a playing experience that is as exceptional as its materials.

Groundbreaking

The Kanileʻa KG-5 Guitar is groundbreaking in both design and performance, featuring the revolutionary TRG (Tone Resonating Guitar) Bracing System. This innovative bracing, unique to Kanileʻa and not used by any other manufacturer, enhances the guitar's tonal clarity, sustain, and resonance, providing an unmatched playing experience. The TRG system is engineered to optimize sound transmission across the entire body, resulting in a fuller, richer tone with incredible depth. It’s the perfect fusion of cutting-edge technology and expert craftsmanship, ensuring that the KG-5 stands apart as a truly exceptional instrument in the world of acoustic guitars.

Limitless

The KG-5 incorporates several key innovations for enhanced player comfort, inspired by our ʻukulele designs. The bevel cutaway offers effortless fret access all the way up the neck, allowing for smooth playing without compromising tone. It provides better soundbox integrity compared to traditional cutaways. The Komo ʻEkolu (Three Rings) side sound port offers a unique visual and auditory experience, allowing players to hear their true tone more clearly. Additionally, the soundhole is strategically placed in the upper bout to maximize the soundboard area beneath the strings, increasing resonance and presence for a rich, full-bodied tone characteristic of an OOO-sized guitar.
