Listing Info
from the Cocobolo Ukuleles web site
Each Cocobolo Ukulele is a handmade work of art. We personally select cuts of Nicaraguan cocobolo that have interesting grain designs and pretty coloring, giving each ukulele a unique personality of its own.
Nicaraguan cocobolo is a quality tonewood that produces warm acoustics with impressive volume and sustain. The unique sound of a Cocobolo Ukulele is enough to impress even the most experienced musician.
Unlike the large amount of mass produced ukuleles that have recently flooded the market, each Cocobolo Ukulele is 100% handmade from a limited selection of tools.
We hope that your unique ukulele will become a cherished family treasure that is passed down for generations.
#####Kevin and Adalina Keith — Founders and Owners
After graduating from the University of Utah in 2003, Kevin decided to take a "short break" and spend 3 months in Nicaragua before getting a "real job". Kevin immediately fell in love with surfing, the Nicaraguan culture, and the lifestyle that this tropical paradise offers. Kevin spent the next 7 years working winters at Snowbird Ski Resort, and the rest of the year playing in the tropical waters of Nicaragua.
In 2012, Kevin met his Nicaraguan Beauty Adalina and decided it was time to make Nicaragua his new home. Cocobolo Ukuleles was born shortly thereafter. Kevin and Adalina were married in December of 2014 and Adalina joined the workforce right away. We are all lucky to have her as part of the team.
