Ukuleles
Think Ukuleles are only appropriate for luaus? Think again. This compact stringed instrument is part of the guitar family and is undergoing a serious revival since the 1990s among all kinds of musicians. Ukuleles are also an unbelievable bargain for a serious musical instrument.
See our full selection of in-stock ukuleles here.
The magic of the ukulele is that it is both a perfect instrument for someone who has never played anything before as well as the experienced musician wanting to expand their instrument world. Plus it is super compact, and you can get a great quality uke for less than $200.
