Selecting your first ukulele

Identify your preferred scale

Choose a 21 in soprano for a bright traditional sound or a 23 in concert for more room on the fretboard.

Choose your material

Select mahogany for a warm, balanced tone or carbon fiber if you need a durable instrument for travel and outdoor use.

Determine your power needs

Decide between a standard acoustic model for natural resonance or an acoustic-electric version for plugging into an amplifier.
