Why Kala Brand Ukuleles Rock.

I'm really happy to be a Kala Brand Ukulele Dealer here in OZ, simple because I think they offer an astounding 'bang for your dollar'.  They have an instrument for a beginner and an instrument for professionals playing gigs and recording.  

I find Kala Brand ukuleles play and sound great straight outta the box, and that makes my life as a retailer so much easier.

Our Setups of ukuleles go faster and our customers are happy they are getting a quality instrument, not a toy. It's a Win-Win.

Since Mike Upton started Kala Brand in 2005 the quality of their instruments has been setting the industry standard.

Such is the demand for Kala Brand ukulele that it's hard to keep up. Luckily Shipments of ukulele arrive in Australia regularly and the Importer is also located in our hometown of Adelaide South Australia. So if I don't have a particular model (and there are 100's) on my shelves then I can order it in ASAP.

Guide to Ukulele Tone Woods; Mahogany Versus Cedar Vs Rosewood Vs Koa Vs Spruce Vs Ovankol

Many factors contribute to the tone of your Ukulele.

The choice of strings and the size (Soprano / Concert / Tenor) are probably the most obvious.

Design factors in construction, play their part also.  Such design choices as the placing of the internal braces and type of kerfing employed can mean the difference between a uke that sings and one that, well, just 'plonks'

Visually the most obvious differences in ukuleles is the woods used in construction.

Woods are chosen for their Tonal Characteristics as much as their looks, perhaps even more so.

Kala Brand Ukuleles has produced this handy guide to Woods and the tonal properties they exhibit.

Some final words of advice ... Use Your Ears! We are all different, and much like taste in Artwork or Food we all have our own ideas of what is 'Good'.

Some people perceive a Bright Crisp Ukulele as Shrillness or Thinness, others perceive a ukulele with a big bottom end bass tone as 'Dull".

"Horses for Courses" as they say
