There aren't many options on Kauai, so if you don't want to order gear online there's Scotty's Music in Lihue (which is where I bought the guitar) and this place. The shop is easy to find downtown on the main drag. It's near the bus stops which is convenient and one is covered in case it's raining. I think it's like a hub and one line goes to Lihue and the other line goes to Poipu from here. They didn't have a lot of guitars or guitar stuff, but they had what I wanted. Aloha

We stopped in here on our first day on the island to check it out since we were shopping and I'd…read morebeen thinking about upgrading my ukulele. We met Lucky and he was very helpful and friendly. He was patient and answered all my questions. He also let me try out several different ukuleles. I found out they were having a killer sale and they also would ship the instrument to my home back on the mainland. I told him I'd come back prior to our leaving the island. When I returned, Lucky was there as well as Sam, the owner and Lucky's dad. Sam was super cool as well. He answered more of my questions and showed me many options. I knew I wanted to upgrade to a tenor ukulele since my first one is a soprano. He was willing to honor the sale for the soprano ukuleles for the tenor I picked. I honestly feel I got an amazing deal for a beautiful instrument. I chose a ukulele with a Sitka spruce soundboard, ebony fretboard and bridge, gold pearl block inlays and around the head with the Kamoa diamond, walnut head and spalted maple backsides. It's gorgeous! He had several of the model I wanted, and we were able to get me the #1 edition of that model. I think he said only 12 had been made for the year. Score! They also took the time to lower the action on the fretboard so the strings were set closer. We jammed a little and then Sam and Lucky played for me as well. It was a really great experience! Shipping was super quick. My ukulele was delivered the day we got back! I love it! Thank you, Sam, Lucky and Kamoa!

It was a little bit more, but that's OK because it was a small shop and we didn't mind contributing to a small business. The young guy there is very friendly and knowledgeable and super nice.

They were so extremely helpful with any and every question/request and helped us find the most meaningful gifts. They have an incredible selection of jewelry, ranging from affordable silver rings to extremely rare hand-made shell jewelry made on the forbidden island of Ni'ihau! This is definitely the place to go if you are looking for traditional and totally unique pieces. We bought two rings and a lovely bracelet and were led thru a beautiful ritual of Aloha when putting on our pieces. Long story short, this place has it all and if i would have discovered it sooner in my trip I would definitely go back for more stories of the islands and unique treasures to take home to the main land.
