Kiwaya ukuleles

Kiwaya ukuleles, a Japanese ukulele maker, have a strong reputation for building excellent instruments.  They have a wide range of ukes on their site but what piqued my interest most was the heading, novelty.

They look a little bit hideous but also amazing at the same time, if that’s possible but at 150 dollars they’re not cheap.

J. Cortes – soprano ukulele

Found a Cortes ukulele at the market the other day.  It’s quite rare that I find ukuleles anymore.  Not really in great condition but I couldn’t resist.

Celetano cupcake ukulele

This is slightly late but ukulele porn is now a year old.  I have another post I want to write about this as the site gets some pretty strange keyword searches, but for today, this astonishing cupcake ukulele seems very apt for the occasion.  I want a celentano ukulele so much I just need to decide which one.
