“I wandered everywhere, through cities and countries wide. And everywhere I went the Ukulele was on my side. Follow my Journey on Instagram and Youtube, and I will follow you!”
- Kyas Ryo from Kochi Island, Japan -
Asia's renowned ukulele artist Kyas Ryo first gained recognition in 2007 when he won the Best Technique Prize at a Japanese ukulele competition. He is known for his adventurous spirit, using the ukulele to explore various possibilities in music.
Kyas Ryo hails from Kochi Prefecture in Japan, a place facing the Pacific Ocean, frequently visited by whales and boasting the highest forest coverage. This land of natural beauty and talent has inspired Kyas' music, and as his music has grown, aNueNue's ukuleles were there with him along the way. Together, they have created the "Kyas Whale" ukulele.
Just as whales communicate using sound frequencies and tones, the "Kyas Whale" ukulele also releases emotional energy through its playing, fostering connection and sharing with family, siblings, friends, and partners.
【KOA WHALE】
The Hawaiian Koa wood, unique to Hawaii, produces bright, crisp, sweet, and penetrating tones. Premium Koa wood generates warm mid-tones and deep bass notes, resulting in a well-balanced sound. The ebony fingerboard, with its high conductivity, further accentuates the high frequencies. The instrument's headstock, fingerboard, and body are adorned with intricate inlays of black and white mother-of-pearl, turquoise, and tiger-striped Koa wood, depicting various scenes of whales frolicking in the ocean and leaping above the surface – a breathtaking sight.
