説明

In the summer of 2008, i was approached by my 5 year old hanai nephew who wanted to learn to play upright bass to play Hawaiian Music. He was just too small to hold a big bass so i set out to see what i could do. I discovered the Ashbory Bass invented by Alun Ashworth-Jones and manufactured by Fender in 1985. Alun had passed away and i contacted his widow and ordered one. I did not like the intonation using the silicone strings. I then found Owen Holt of ROAD TOAD MUSIC. Owen is the creator of the modern day ukulele bass and the Pahoehoe uke bass strings.  I ordered a ukulele bass from Owen. It was fantastic but too expensive to be a child’s instrument. So i ordered the same top of the line components that Owen used and put them into a ukulele to make an economical version for children. I ordered Kala ukuleles by the cases and converted them into ukulele basses which i sold online and through Bounty Music and Mele Ukulele on Maui. Mele sold one of my basses to the bass player from the Grateful Dead. I then approached John at Kala hoping he, and i, Pahoehoe String maker Owen Holt, K&K Sound and Hipshot Products could all hui to produce a low cost ukulele bass for children.  John, being a businessman, cut off communication with me and basically bought the rights or made deals with the component makers and ran very well with the idea producing today’s  Kala ukulele basses, of well.
