The Rebel Ukulele | J-Series (Classic Edition)
Model: Pi
For over 10 years, we've avoided crafting pineapple-shaped ukuleles because we firmly believe that every shape possesses its own distinct sound qualities.
Even slight variations in the placement of soundholes and ports can result in different auditory experiences, even when produced from the same batch.
Our approach remains grounded in authenticity as we diligently research and strive to create unique sounds for each ukulele, enriching their individuality.
And this first batch of pineapple-shaped experiments is something that we are really proud to present
Creating a musical instrument is like sailing a boat across the ocean; it’s a long journey that demands both faith and knowledge, gained through personal experimentation and keen observation at every step.
In this endeavor, you strive to give life to the instrument’s voice—something invisible to the eye that only becomes apparent when the instrument is played.
Sometimes the process works, and sometimes it doesn't. It can defy theoretical expectations and surpass previous achievements. This journey continues infinitely, never repeating the same result.
After 10 years of effort, it took us 202 models and 80 types of bracing to find the perfect voice for the instrument that complements its unique body.
Each failure reminds us of our shortcomings and pushes us to try again.
This Pi [π]apple model is the culmination of all our past successes and failures—like not even a pineapple, it required meticulous testing in terms of size and scale.
The Pi model was inspired by Yann Martel's book, "Life of Pi," where the protagonist survives 227 days on a boat with a tiger.
This is the best Pi we can create today, and we are immensely proud of it
