DEMO: Ohana SK-350G All Solid Koa Wood Soprano with Abalone Binding, Ken Middleton playing The Gypsy Rover

Ohana Ukuleles make some very nice ukuleles indeed.  From their $80 entry level ukuleles to their top of the Range 350 Series its hard to find anything disappointing.

Ohana means "Family"  and all their ukuleles do seem to embody that 'comfortable at home feel.'

The Ohana SK-350G is an All Solid Koa Wood Soprano with Abalone Binding.  Enjoy Ken Middleton playing the piece 'The Gypsy Rover.'

G'day Ukulele Lovers.
If you are Brand New to Ukulele,
then you have Two Questions you need ask yourself.


Makala Dolphin Series ukuleles by Kala Brand for Sale from The Ukulele Trading Co Australia
Q 1. You need to think what size (Soprano/Concert/Tenor) would suit; Child or Adult? Big hands or Little dainty fingers?

Don't think for a minute that Soprano ukuleles are the 'Childs Size" Ukuleles, because they are for Adults too.

Soprano Ukuleles ARE NOT only for children, its just that Concerts and Tenors give you more room for big hands, and more frets to explore musically and the bigger body is louder with more bass too the tone.

Q 2. What Budget do you want to invest.   If you want to 'dip a toe in the water' then $40 will get you into a Makala Dolphin Soprano Series by Kala Brand Ukuleles.

A great starter soprano ukulele, the Dolphin Series Soprano Ukuleles come in 11 bright colors, have good GHS Ukulele Strings, and Bridge, Nut and Frets are in the right positions with a good standard of construction.

Purchasing a Soprano Makala Dolphin Ukulele is $40 well spent, save the frustration and disappointment and avoid those cheap and nasty Sub $30 ukes, they're just toys.

I Want A Larger Size Concert or Tenor Ukulele.
If you do decide you need a Concert Or Tenor Size Ukulele and you need to stay in the starter budget territory.  Then opt for the MK-C at $65, or the MK-T at $75, BUT its Any Color you like, as long as its Natural See through Satin Finish Mahogany Wood.  No fancy color paint jobs for Concert or Tenor ukuleles.  Again they come fitted with GHS Strings.


Makala Ukuleles Now Available with Pickups.

Simply the best entry level ukes on the market, and now you can plug the Makala Ukulele in!
These ukes have a fantastic sound, great looks and are easy on the wallet.  Budget Starter Ukuleles with Pickups are rare, but Kala Brand steps into that void.  The MK-CE $135 or the MK-TE $165
