Welcome

Welcome! I’m Will, a ukulele maker based in London. I’m also a performer, musician and composer.

For over thirty years I was a member of the legendary Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain on our “world tour with only hand luggage”. These days I make ukuleles, play ukuleles, compose music on ukuleles and write about ukuleles.

I’m a ukulele obsessive, unable to escape this eccentric little instrument’s simplicity, charm and utility. I make bespoke ukuleles, as well as more unusual ukuleles which I’ve always wanted to exist but could never find.

Ukuleles

Below are some of the different kinds of ukuleles I’ve been making. If you’d like me to make something that isn’t shown below, just ask! Each uke I make is a completely unique, one-off creation. To order a bespoke ukulele, drop me a line and we can start planning it out… Alternatively check out the Ukuleles For Sale page, where you might find stock ukuleles available to buy right now. The Ukulele Archive is where you can see all my sold instruments.
