Welcome

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

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

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

Ukuleles

I make ukuleles in a variety of styles and woods. Each uke I make is a completely unique, one-off creation. I use different woods depending on what’s available and what’s giving the most exciting sound. Extras like binding, rosettes or fancy tuners can also be added. If you’d like to own one of my ukuleles, check out the options and drop me a line.
