Octopus Ukulele

Parents often ask us which ukulele to buy for for their child, so we try to make it really easy by supplying them ourselves.

Octopus has been providing high quality beginner ukuleles for almost a decade. It is a core part of the Octopus brand philosophy that an instrument should encourage and inspire the player.

We've been working with Octopus for several years now - that's because they're the best in their price range.

Your child will receive their new ukulele at their first lesson, checked over, tuned up and ready to play.

Please note that colours may differ slightly from the photo.

​Size and range
The soprano (or standard) is the most widely used size of ukulele, measuring 21in (53cm) in total. It has twelve frets.

The build
All of our models feature solid rosewood fretboards and bridges, and mahogany necks ensuring long life and consistent tone. The tuning pegs are geared like a guitar meaning the strings are easier to tighten and will hold their pitch for longer. Every edge and all the frets have been smoothed and finished to a standard higher than many more expensive instruments.

​Aquila Nylgut® strings
Each ukulele comes fitted with Aquila Nylgut® strings as standard, the best in the world for intonation and tone. When not in use your Octopus can protect itself from spills and splashes by hiding in your handy carry case, supplied free with every instrument.
