Purchasing A Ukulele:


I do not have many spare ukuleles beyond what we need in class.  At this time, I cannot lend ukuleles for bringing home.

I am able to purchase these for less than the listed price on Amazon - if you'd like to purchase one, let me know!

This is the Kohala AK-S soprano ukulele.

It's perfect for young ukulele players!

This is the Cordoba 15CM concert ukulele.

Concert ukuleles read and tune the same way that soprano ukuleles do, but they are larger, so the fingers are spread further apart.  Sometimes this can be more comfortable for older students, but is not recommended as a first ukulele.

This is the ukulele I use.
