What's on the wall
“Not only did they have the best price on the Flight Pathfinder solid-body electric tenor uke in transparent blue, but they shipped it WEEKS earlier than promised.”
“The craftsmanship and setup are perfect, the woods are magnificent, and Matt is very courteous and responsive in his advice.”
“I don't know of anywhere else (sort of local) with the inventory that is available to try many ukuleles whether you are a beginner or more advanced, and at all price ranges.”

From the reviews
I ordered a ukulele from them and I was very pleased. It was setup and shipped out the next day and I got it 2 days later. No complaints and when I'm ready to buy my next ukulele, you can sure I'll be buying from them again.
Can’t thank Matt and his staff enough for helping me get my new Kala Elite KOA-CT-T ukulele. After searching several of the nationwide music stores online with no luck, I found one in stock at Aloha City Ukes.
Best place to pick up the ukulele that's right for you. Matt helped me buy my first ukulele, a Makaio tenor that's still my favorite to play, and my most recent, a Risa electric. He spent time going over various options and then making sure the setup was just right on both.
Just bought a new ukulele from Aloha City Ukes. I bought the first , a Makaio Solid Mango Electric Tenor, four years ago and was so satisfied with it that I decide to order its big brother , a Makaio Solid Mango Electric Baritone. I just received it yesterday and immediatly succumbed to its charm.
Lessons at Aloha City Ukes
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Aloha City Ukes. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments on hand for exactly this reason.
