As the most recognizable and trusted name in ukulele, Kala Brand Music Co.™ has more unique models to choose from than any other brand in the world! Musical icons across genres choose to play Kala instruments—Twenty One Pilots, Vance Joy, and Prince’s former bassist, Nik West, to name a few. Kala is the place where countless players got their start—from beginner to legend.

I own 6 Kala Brand Ukuleles and find, at their middle price point ($300-500), they are a very reliable choice for ukuleles. I also find that the “setup” of your ukulele and where you purchase the instrument is critical. That’s why I use The Ukulele Site website for my purchases. (See my resource for The Ukulele Site.)

UPDATE: I’ve recently been in touch with Ian from Kala Brand Music Company in order to purchase a Kala “Striped Ebony Fretless U-Bass.” Ian was most helpful and made sure I had the requested strings and any adjustments needed for setting up the bass. He also checked for any discounts that were available at the time. Thank you Ian! I look forward to playing this beautiful U-Bass.
