Guitars stolen this morning from singer Anuhea Jenkins


Advertiser Staff

Two guitars and a laptop computer belonging to Ånuhea Jenkins, the rising Hawaiian musician who was named an "iTunes Featured Artist" and prominently displayed on the iTunes front page, were stolen from her truck this morning.

Jenkins' truck was broken into between 7 a.m. and 10 a.m. while she was stand up paddling in Waikiki.
One of the guitars is a custom-made, koa wood acoustic made built by Pono Guitars out of the North Shore.
The other belonged to Jenkins' aunt, Nalani Choy, of the group Na Leo Pilimehana.
The guitars and computer were locked in Jenkins' truck where it was parked on the road near Pau Street and Ala Wai Boulevard.
Jenkins had the instruments in her car because she had been rehearsing for a show in Los Angeles, said Warren Wyatt, Jenkins' manager.
