In overall good condition, all original apart from two tuning pegs, replaced with period Kumalae pegs, which are slightly different. There is a shrinkage crack to the top, which is repaired and stable. It starts to the far left of the bridge, and runs down to the bottom edge. It can clearly be seen in photos 13, 14 and 15. All Koa construction. The style E is the highest model that was made by Jonah Kumalae, with a different peghead to all other styles. Inside on the back, written in pencil, it has ‘e – 233’.
Comes with a period case, which is functional, but missing its handle.
P.O.A.
