LoPrinzi Ukuleles
Augustino LoPrinzi began making ukuleles on a bit of a
whim. Long practiced in the design and
handcrafting of guitars-both classical and
 steel
string-Augustino was approached by Herb Ohta's
manager to create an instrument for the ukulele virtuoso. Ohta-San found
the resulting ukulele to be a delight-and the LoPrinzi name soon became a
legend on these small instruments. For the LoPrinzi ukulele story

Cradle a LoPrinzi ukulele in your arms and experience
the joy of the simplest
instrument-with a sophisticated sound.
