I bought a wonderful Kala SA-B from SUS. Their demonstration videos are brilliantly helpful as a starting point; you really get a clear idea of how different models sound and look, (especially handy if you can’t get to the store in person) and the depth of their knowledge and experience is clear. COVID disrupted the supply chain so there was a bit of a wait, but when the batch arrived in store we talked about wood colouring and tonality and they sent pictures of the pieces available so I could choose my favourite. I couldn’t be happier with my ukulele or the service. First class.
My first foray into long neck soprano, went for ohana sk30l. Very happy with it, ordered online no probs whatsoever, item as described, came with a sus own solid brand hardcase which I wasn't expecting? Nice touch!
Friendly unhurried advice on the phone from Alex, and despite calling on what I was apologetically informed was a busy shipping day, so expect a slight delay, my new Uke arrived double boxed so in perfect condition and within 24 hours. Unquestionably Five Star service from SUS, and as an added bonus, at a very competitive price. Won't hesitate to use them again.
This is a very professional, caring organisation. Their website and promotional activities are first class. Have bought 3 ukuleles from them. On each occasion the experience has been excellent. Cannot praise them enough. Their staff know their job and do it well.
I'm happy with my purchase from Southern Ukulele Store, informed opinions, always available and quality service with choice! Thanks again.
I now have 3 uses from the SUS and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Always expert and friendly service, it’s clear that the SUS team are passionate about what they do. I’ve called them up for advice and they even put a uke on hold for me whilst I got the money together. Oh and not to mention next day delivery! I couldn’t be happier :)
So impressed. Excellent advice over the phone when I couldn’t wait for the store to open after Lockdown 3. They even emailed photographs of the Uke when I had second thoughts about the appearance. Friendly informative service and swift delivery. Can highly recommend.
Not even a customer, but contacted Southern Ukuleles today... twice ....on technical issues asking for advice.spoke to different persons, Both extremely helpful. Advice brilliant both times. Solved my problem as a luthier/fixer of stuff. Can’t thank enough. Will buy something soon Tony S
Excellent advice and service These guys really know their stuff!! Look no further folks. I have no hesitation in highly recommending the business.
What impressed me the most is the way, when I told the salesman my budget, he didn't try to extract my limit but instead recommended the right instrument for me. I am already recommending them to everyone.
Ordered a premium ukulele, discussed with the staff what I wanted, received great advice again. Ukulele arrived set up and strung how I requested and sounds perfect. Very well packaged and quick delivery. I will definitely be buying from SUS again and again.
Excellent customer service, informative website, perfect delivery of exactly what I hoped I'd get, all achieved in lockdown (again). So that's two Snail ukes I now own.
I'd been researching and trying to buy a solid wood baritone ukulele for almost a year during the pandemic, which have been difficult to find due to a global manufacturing slowdown. SUS YouTube reviews were essential for insight into the comparative nuances of the instruments. Rob and Alex were really knowledgeable, understanding, helpful and amenable. Found the ideal ukulele for me. Setup is good and delivery was so fast. Couldn't be happier!
This was my first ukulele purchase and I did a lot of research. Everyone at SUS was very professional and responded to my emails and calls quickly. Their enthusiasm and love for the ukulele is infectious and I jumped right in and made my first purchase confident that I was getting a quality instrument. 24 hours after placing my order my first uke arrived via courier. (No delivery change in the uk) It was well packaged with plenty of bubble wrap. Once unboxed it was already set up and ready to play. Looking forward to spending many hours with my shiny, beautiful, happy ukulele x
These guys are real enthusiasts and it shows, knowledgeable, fantastic range of products, very high quality service, great attention to detail, quick and responsive.
This is the second time I have bought from The Southern Ukulele Store, the staff are very helpful and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. I would definitely recommend them if you are a beginner or professional musician, they will have something for you, or if they don’t they will get it for you or help you find it. The uke arrived quickly and was above and beyond what I was expecting. I’m very happy with my new ANueNue AMM3 African mahogany tenor lll The sound is awesome! the gig bag was good quality too. Very happy. Thankyou.
Fantastic service, really helpful. They know everything about the ukulele
Great service. Staff really friendly and helpful. My ukulele got delivered the next day. I ordered the ohana sk75 g, great value for money, sounds lovely and a pleasure to play. I Highly recommend this store.
Alex dealt with my purchase via telephone, he assured me that my LAKA VUT40 would be with me the following day? Sure enough, the courier delivered it early in the morning, it was well packed, required no set up and in perfect condition! Can't recommend SUS and their team enough, give them a try, you won't be disappointed! Genuine buyer!
Friendly, helpful and efficient service by Rob. Massively pleased with my new ukulele. It arrived next day well packaged, including the fitted strap button as requested. I am a happy customer.
