Eva was so knowledgeable and kind, and with her help we bought an awesome mahogany top concert ukulele. The sound is so sweet, and the price was affordable. Ukuleles range from $60-$3,000 in this shop, and the helpful staff will hook you up with a beautiful instrument at your price point. When you strum this instrument it exudes the magic of Hawaii. It's very easy for beginners to learn, and this shop is legit. Thank you Eva for your help, we love our new baby.

*See SF Japantown Yelp - pictures to be uploaded if I can recover…read more We always visit and support the local shops here during our hour wait for Monkeypod, Quality/Quantity - Okay, we like to support the local businesses, but after finding out we paid 3 times the price versus the other tourist locations at Front Street, Lahaina, or Kihei, it knocked the wind out of us. Atmosphere - Small local business. North, their dog is the best. He came by and hung out with us. North just walks around the mall, everyone knows and likes North, see picture. Service - 2 stars, very aggressive sales techniques; not necessary resulting in a positive result. Owner seems friendly, until he starts "selling". Selling, not in an unfriendly way, but way too aggressive after we said we were not interested in another piece. See Lahaina Gems Yelp, where an aggressive salesperson can still make a customer leave feeling positive. Price - $15, we have no problem supporting and paying extra at local businesses; but not when all other locations sell the exact same item for only $4-$5... If I knew that, I would have suggested my wife NOT to buy it. She still may have though, LOL. Owner Comment - I suggest working on a better sales technique... Owner says this is a new location for him, so I almost feel bad writing this review. I believe suggestive selling works, but do not push or overly pressure customers because it can have the opposite intended effect. I think we also bought something from him last year...? Because I remember North as the best temperamental dog!

(I was present so he was able to see my size and take that into consideration to best customize the size and shape of the board). The best board I've ever had! and although I didn't quite believe him when he had said (regarding it's versatility) I wouldn't need another board, I now have experienced that to be an accurate statement :) Upon first viewing, in full transparency, I was a little concerned as I thought it was too narrow for my skill level; but it's actually exactly what I needed. Even in the initial paddle out, I could tell a difference and that this was going to be a great board! ..and it is! It took me about 9-12 sessions to get acclimated to the shorter length, but even during that curve I was catching more waves. Fun board! Great board, and nice looking board! Matt was right (on all counts); I need only this board :) Trust him; he knows what he's doing!
