This Oahu 65M Hawaiian guitar was made by Stromberg-Voisinet (later Kay) in the mid 1930s Chicago for distribution by the Oahu Publishing company. It was in good condition when Jake got it, he only had to change out the bakelite bridge pins for ebony ones.
Jake describes its sound as very full, boomy, woody with a sweet tone.  You can listen to this very instrument on the embedded video.
