By Moses Goods in collaboration with Kealakai Center for Pacific Strings

In 1889, a student at Kamehameha Schools fabricated a steel bar in the school’s machine shop, slid it across the strings of his guitar and changed the sound and shape of the instrument forever. The grandson of a royal chanter, Joseph Kekuku played his steel guitar for royalty in Hawai‘i and across Europe, inspiring musicians around the world with the new “Hawaiian Sound”. LIMITED RUN
