From the reviews
THE SHOP IS ON THE LEFT CORNER NEAR THE PARKING LOT! Very specialized shop for ukulele players. Better than Guitar Center, in my opinion. Lots of high-end models/brands, accessories, and learning material. Pretty much everything you need and a little more to get you started or to improve.
Rick has an amazing shop and is a great hang. I 1000% recommend this place to anyone looking for a ukulele or any accessories. Super knowledgeable friendly and will find the right setup for your budget. Do yourself a favor and stop by!!!!
Hale Ukulele is a real gem of an ukulele store! They carry a vast array of ukuleles ranging from beginner friendly to high end professional. Anything you're looking for you can find here. But where Hale Ukulele really shines is the staff & customer service. The owner Ric is incredibly welcoming, kind and knowledgeable.
Ric was amazing. I chose a tenor uke that i really liked and he recommended some things to help really make it my own. He added bumps for a strap and pointed out some custom made ones that i fell in love with right away. He also let me try playing a few of the more rare ukuleles while he worked.
Lessons at Hale Ukulele
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Hale Ukulele. 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.
