KAULUA STEEL STRING

The Kaulua model, like the Beamer, is a double-soundhole, expanded-soundboard guitar. It features an extended cutaway design, allowing access to the high frets. The area of the two soundholes is similar to that of a conventional round hole guitar, but this design splits the hole and moves it into the upper bout so that a larger, uninterupted area of the soundboard can vibrate. This makes it possible for the bass response of a larger guitar to be acheived in a smaller one. The proximity of the bass side hole makes the sound of the guitar much fuller and louder to the player.
