Bakithi Kumalo Signature Acoustic-Electric U•BASSĀ® (RRP Ā£299)

Bakithi Kumalo has been a proud endorsee of the Kala U•BASSĀ® for over a decade. Longtime collaborator and bassist for Paul Simon, Bakithi’s world-renowned work for 1985’s Graceland in South Africa launched his lifelong career as bassist, studio musician, and composer. As a new milestone, Bakithi and Kala have designed his very own Signature Acoustic-Electric U•BASSĀ® to help share his unique sound and philosophy as a bassist with players of any level.

With this Signature U•BASSĀ®, Kala & Bakithi set out to create the perfect U•BASS introduction for new and experienced bass players alike. This fretted bass pairs a Natural Mahogany build with the Kala Round Wound U•BASSĀ® Strings for a clear and confident tone. Personal touches include Bakithi’s signature black pickguard and custom Zulu shield headstock artwork, hand-drawn by Bakithi’s own album cover artist, Gus Liberdade.

Bakithi’s Signature U•BASSĀ® includes a Custom Gig Bag and access to free online companion lessons and bass line breakdowns specifically for the U•BASSĀ®, featuring Bakithi and some of his most celebrated bass lines.

Another load of ukuleles heading into the hands of young musicians at Passmores Academy!

We’re incredibly grateful to be able to support another school with quality instruments and help give students the very best start on their musical journey!

There’s nothing better than knowing these ukuleles will soon be filling classrooms with music, creativity and confidence.

A huge thank you to John Thomson and Vic Goddard in helping make this happen — we can’t wait to see what the students at Passmores Academy do with them!

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT?! 🐶

A whole pack of Salt & Pepper Series ukuleles is padding its way down to the Southern Ukulele Store, Bournemouth, alongside a kennel-full of other uke goodness.

But I had to paws for a moment and snap a quick photo of the grain on this KA-SDH-BE (Baritone).

The grain? Fetching.
The tone? Howl-worthy.
The vibes? Off the leash.

Either way.... it's certainly got me panting!

Right that's enough Doggy puns for the day. Although......feel free to add to them in the comment section. Lol

Oh and more importantly........HAPPY FRIDAY!

Have a great Weekend Y'all!

I'm on double duty today as Walt has a couple of days off!

I cherish these days because I get to be hands on with the product that's due to leave us that day.

And these Solid Spruce top/Solid Rosewood Back and Sides Contour Deluxe Models are flying out today, and you can see just why! 🤤

This Spruce is on another level but it's the Purple heart binding that really does it for me!

Anyway, time for it to make it's way to Music Bits Company

Absolutely buzzing to be able to support HCFS with a full set of quality ukuleles from Kala Brand UK!

Huge credit to Mr Adam Nicholls as well for the passion and effort he’s putting into music at the school — not only bringing more instruments into the classroom, but also helping pupils and teachers develop the way they listen to, understand and talk about music.

We’re incredibly proud to play a small part in helping create more musical opportunities for the next generation.

BLACK NIGHT or BLACK KNIGHT Mango?

I took a stroll around Caerphilly Castle on my lunch break today and took with me a Beautiful Black Night Premium Mango Baritone for some company!

It only hits me when i get up close to this amazing structure that I completely take the castle for granted, and usually drive past it without really taking any notice of it!

FUN FACT! - Built in the 13th century by Gilbert de Clare, Caerphilly Castle is actually the second largest castle in Britain (Second only to Windsor Castle), famous for its huge water defences and its famously leaning tower… which even beats Pisa to the tilt!

There’s just something about the Black Night Mango finish against ancient Welsh stonework that feels absolutely epic.

ā€œLOOK AT ME, IM THE KING OF THE CASTLE!… LOOK AT ME… I HAVE A CHAIR!ā€ (Sorry, I had to!)

History, castles, ukuleles and terrible Borat impressions… what more could you want on a Friday afternoon!

Have a great weekend guys!

It’s incredibly important to us that children get the very best possible start to their musical journey.

That’s why we’re beyond proud to have donated TWO full classrooms worth of quality instruments to help inspire and push the next generation of ukulele players.

Sadly, we see it far too often here in the UK… schools being forced to choose quantity over quality due to stretched budgets, leaving kids learning on instruments that can sometimes feel more like toys than real musical tools. The result? Frustration, poor playability, and young musicians losing interest before they’ve even had the chance to truly begin.

We passionately believe every child deserves the opportunity to learn on an instrument that feels inspiring, sounds beautiful, and gives them the best possible chance to fall in love with music.

For us, this is about far more than ukuleles. It’s about planting seeds for the next generation of ukulele virtuosos, songwriters, performers, and lifelong music lovers.

Who knows… the next great player could be sitting in one of these classrooms right now!!!

WELCOME TO THE KALA FAMILY: Sam Elliott

Beginning his ukulele journey in 2017, Sam, better known as Uke Elliott, first picked up the instrument after landing an acting role that required him to play. What started as a necessity quickly became an obsession, and he began livestreaming his progress, building a loyal audience along the way.

Eight years on, Uke Elliott has grown a dedicated following of over 100,000 fans, raised more than Ā£3,500 for charity, and mastered a repertoire of 400+ songs. From pop to rock, indie to funk, comedy to soul, and everything in between—Sam has built a reputation for taking on literally anything and making it his own on the ukulele.

We look forward to hearing some more bangers from Sam in the weeks,months and years ahead!
