The Lanikai Waimea super concert ukulele's organically warm tone comes courtesy of its body size and solid Hawaiian koa top, sides, and back. Only the top 1% of the highest grade koa harvested meets the demands of our luthiers. Its rosewood fingerboard is also ideal for optimizing the transfer of energy from the strings to the body, for a deep and rich sound. And then there's Lanikai's hand-rubbed oil and wax finish, which enhances the Waimea's tone, while imbuing it with understated good looks. Take it from the Sweetwater crew - the Lanikai Waimea super concert ukulele will be a prized treasure among all your instruments.

The super concert-sized Waimea ukulele, or sometimes known as the alto, is slightly larger than the soprano and sometimes known to have a bigger sound. Also, because the super concert uke is longer, there is more tension on the strings. This can be beneficial if you find yourself strumming away and going out of tune more often than you'd like. Larger fingers are no problem for the super concert ukulele because the frets are spaced farther apart and there's plenty of room for big fingers to play on a small instrument.
