About Ukulele Friend…
Ukulele Friend specializes in a range of the finest vintage ukuleles and custom ukuleles for purchase. Compiled with ‘Aloha’ – Here you will find videos of some of the finest handcrafted vintage ukuleles and custom ukuleles in the world. From the earliest of historical ukulele founders such as Augusto Dias, Manuel Nunes, and Jose Do Espirito Santo to the elegance and tonal complexities offered by the 21st century ukulele luthiers, each instrument is filled with ‘personality’, both aesthetically and tonally, as demonstrated through the woods, adornments, and voicing of the instruments themselves. And so for many of these instruments, we’ve taken the time to capture the voicing of each ukulele through studio recordings and ukulele videos for your educational purposes.
