eBay Window Shopping: Mainland Ukuleles, Gibson Banjoleles

January 30, 2009

More of musicguymic’s finds from NAMM including this seriously sexy T’s ukulele from Shinji Takahashi and another Eleuke I don’t really like the look of.

MGM has also started selling hoosierhiver’s Mainland Ukuleles.

Alan ‘Uke’ Harris keeps a steady supply of lovely vintage ukuleles on eBay UK. Right now there’s a Gibson UB1 and UB2 up for grabs.

I haven’t seen them for sale in the UK, but eBay Australia has quite a few glittery Mahalo U2K ‘Sparkle’ ukuleles.

Does the new Hanalei ukulele look familiar to anyone?

This is an interesting lot. An Edison cylinder recording of On My Ukulele by Billy Jones and Ernest Hare.

Ukulele Dick keeps sailors entertained.

    im always looking for good new ukuleles. my latest is the aforementioned U2K Mahalo, the sound is great, and who can resist glitter and loud colors, no one is my guess. Gotta love the lime green :D

    Oh my gosh!!! A glitter blukulele! I have a “sparkle” Makala and the sparkle leaves a lot to be desired. I was going to add some water slip decals and maybe I can do my own glitter finish? Hmm…

    paul and Jodi: I think the sparkles might be a bit too Liberace for my tastes.

    I love how in the Hanalei ukes discriptions it says (it’s collectable) because of its unique shape.
