Meakaua

Meakaua

I love honoring roots through materials and design – and Symphony Meakaua is a perfect reflection of that spirit. It features a deeply carved curly koa top – a prized, endemic Hawaiian wood – resting on a boldly figured black limba body. The neck is crafted from wenge, padouk, and figured movingue, reinforced with two carbon fiber rods to ensure lasting stability and resonance.

 

An extended ebony fingerboard hosts bronze frets, while custom copper-finished solid brass bridges—with titanium inserts and stainless steel baseplates—add both tonal precision and visual depth. Two hidden magnetic pickups provide remarkable sustain and a clear, expressive tone. Bronze knobs and Aurora bronze-colored strings complete the aesthetic, perfectly echoing the warmth of the koa top.

 

Altogether, it’s a piece that brings us immense joy and pride—built with care, purpose, and a deep respect for the materials we use.
