”One of a Kind Ukulele You Will Treasure”

If you enjoy traditional Hawaiian music, like the old favorite song "Pineapple Princess" then you are going to love the Lanikai LU-21P Pineapple Ukulele; a traditional looking ukulele that will steal your heart away.

At 14”, this unusually shaped uke is between the length of a soprano ukulele (13”) and a concert uke (15”) and is shaped like a pineapple. It is the perfect size for smaller musicians or for those with smaller hands who can handle the narrow frets. For those with larger hands this little number may be hard to handle. But if you can manage the fingering you will find her very sweet indeed, even though it is not a top of the line instrument.

While normally the lower-end instruments don’t have as rich of a flavor as the solid top or higher-end models, this little pineapple princess is surprisingly sweet in her delivery. At just ~$99 you will find that the Lanikai does not break the bank, a great feeling when you are just starting out and are uncertain as to whether or not you are looking to continue your lessons.

Regardless of whether you are using this uke to sing with friends around the campfire or to strum under the palm trees, the LU-21P is a great choice. It is even small enough to fit into your backpack so that you can even take it on the plane with you without having to check an extra bag. And not only does it look great, but it is sturdy too. And while it may disappoint in some areas, e.g. like coming with cheap strings, that is something that can be easily remedied.

From its bright white body binding to its unusual shape, this Lanikai LU-21P Pineapple will have you dreaming of the tropics in no time.
