CASA OPINION
The "Eco" series, known as "Famous" (in Japan), is KIWAYA's oldest brand since 1955, and also the best-selling series in Japan.
Previously reserved for the Japanese market, we received these models in Europe under the name Kiwaya and the designation “eco series.”
In order to harmonize their offering, they have now decided to distribute the “eco series” in France and Europe under the name “Famous.”
Apart from the label, nothing has changed—it's still a Kiwaya made in Japan!
The instrument is made from laminated Hawaiian Koa, and offers exceptional acoustic performance with an impressive, extremely well-balanced volume. Its light weight and extremely precise tuning make this ukulele an addictive instrument to play.
The KS-5G is the brand's best-selling ukulele in Japan!
Kiwaya has a long history as a ukulele manufacturer, which makes this Eco series different from and above other ukuleles in the same price range.
