Hi, my name is Fred Kamaka Jr.
I'm one of the grandsons of the founder Sam Sr.
[A] He started the company 102 years [B] ago,
1916, and
his two [C] sons are the owners now, Fred and Sam, and I'm with the [C#] third generation.
I'm the business manager, [E] Fred Jr.
My cousin [A] Chris is the production manager [Em] and Casey is the head luthier.
We are the ones who run [B] it.
This is our product line here.
Start out with our small ukulele.
Standard model or the soprano.
[D] The soprano model also comes in the [G] pineapple shape, which was my grandfather's.
[B]
Then we go to the [E] concert ukulele here, which is also the alto.
And then we [Em] go over here to the tenor model, of course, for the tenor.
Now are those from the guitar?
[E] No, all of these are ukulele.
And the last ukulele is the biggest one on the end.
Well, the [Em] tenor ukulele also comes in six [A] strings and eight strings.
[D] And then the largest [G] is the baritone [Em] ukulele.
So that's the classic line of the ukulele.
Now all of our [A] ukuleles also come with long neck, so you can order with a long neck.
[Em] The other options are,
you've got,
[A] besides the classic [E] model, you also have your deluxe one model.
So your deluxe one [Em] model [C] comes with the rope.
[Am]
And [D] also the fingerboard and bridge.
[B] And then we're featuring this one here with the ukulele.
[D#] Well, after [E] the deluxe one comes the deluxe two.
And the deluxe two is basically the shell, rosette, shell, purfling, same rosewood binding,
[B] binding on the top and the [D] back.
The new for this year, starting in [E] March, is the J.
Shimabukuro model, which is very [Em] similar to our deluxe two model.
[Am] It just has J.
[Em] Hapi.
Basically it has the blue trim,
[A] Jake's name, has Gilbert [Bm] tuners instead of Schaller, has a Jake flat top, [D] and has the Jake [E] strings on.
Have you established the map price for the J.
Shimabukuro?
The [Bm] regular, I believe the regular model,
[Em] $30, [A] I think it's, [G] I gotta go look it, I think it's $35, around $3,500.
[E] And then the Jake is
$49.95, so just below that.
Yeah, so everything's still made in Hawaii?
Yes, everything is made in Hawaii.
[G] Well, I mean the keys come from Germany or Japan.
[F#] And do [D]
[Em] you [G] still play ukulele?
Yeah, I play a little.
I always tell people, you know,
when you're young and [A] your parents want you to play the piano,
[G] and you don't practice, and then you become an adult and you're [B] like, I wish I had practiced.
That's the [D] way it was with me and ukulele.
So, you [Am] know, but [Em] otherwise,
[D]
I can play with my kids.
That's enough for me, [A] but I don't get on stage.
[A] Thanks for your time today.
You're welcome.
We're [E] glad to represent your product in our store.
