The internet is overflowing with ukulele sites. Some are great, others not so much. Here are my favorite ukulele sites for 2019.
Ukulele Instruction

Brad Bordessa’s site is absolutely packed with lessons and songs. He also has a lot of great info about gear, performance, and recording. All this, packaged in a beautiful, easy-to-use site.

I’ve always enjoyed smaller, more personal ukulele blogs that focus on little bits of interesting ukulele news and trivia.

A quirky little blog with reviews, inspiration, projects, tabs, and whatever else catches the author’s interest.

Beautiful hand-crafted ukuleles offered in a variety of tonewoods, and body sizes.

Martin has changed a lot since they started building ukuleles in the early 1900s, but one thing remains the same: a dedication to craftsmanship, tone, and playability.
