Our Story
The inspiration came from the Hawaiian Lap Steel. The bluesy, sweet melodious sound that can only be felt here in Hawai’i. Matthew Nigro, musician and Master Luthier, also Co-founder of Iseman Guitars and Instruments started building handmade Hawaiian Lap Steel’s & Ukulele’s in Kaka’ako District of Honolulu, Hawai’i in 2011.
Using traditional methods of constructing instruments that really transformed the sound and tone of the instruments, and made the instruments internationally known. Matthew Nigro has since developed Kaka’ako Instruments, which offers that same development and constructing process, but at a very affordable cost. All instruments are specially designed & handled by the company’s owner Matthew Nigro.
