Dear Mr. John Kitakis: 

I have long believed that the `ukulele could be recognized and treated as a concert instrument.  Your dedication to quality and perfection has brought this belief closer to reality.  I am therefore proud to endorse your line of tenor ‘ukuleles. 

As an instructor of the `ukulele, playing one of your instruments gives my students the precious opportunity to hear what an instrument of the highest quality sounds and plays like.  This in my opinion is an education in itself. 

As a record producer, I tend to look for subtle things in an instrument for recording.  Your `‘ukuleles have proven themselves to be well balanced and flawless when recorded. 

In closing, I commend you and your staff.  Ko`olau Guitar & `Ukulele Company has set a new standard of excellence for the `ukulele. 

Sincerely, 
  
Tracey Y. Terada
Instructor/Producer
