About UKE Republic

Donna & Mike McQueen of UKE Republic

Aloha, friends!
Let me introduce you to UKE Republic – a small family business where the ukulele takes center stage, and the magic of music comes to life. At the heart of UKE Republic is Mike, the man behind it all. You could say his musical journey started when he was just 7 years old, thanks to his mom who got him classic guitar lessons. But there was a little hitch – the guitar was quite a large instrument for a 7-year-old!
Fast forward to his teen years, and Mike was rocking out with his friends in a garage punk rock band. The music bug had bitten him hard.
But the real ukulele love story began in 1995 when Mike and his wife Donna were in Ireland. That's when they first heard IZ's version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow." The sweet sound of the ukulele struck a chord in their hearts, and they fell head over heels for it.
Now, what makes UKE Republic special is our unwavering commitment to the ukulele. We've carefully handpicked brands and models known for their top-notch quality and incredible sound. If it's not exceptional, it simply doesn't make the cut.
Every ukulele that walks through our doors goes through a meticulous quality check and inspection. But here's the kicker – we don't stop there. We give each ukulele a complimentary setup to make sure it sounds and plays like a dream. It's our way of making sure you and your musical companion have the best time together.
Our journey started back in 2007 when we ventured into the online world, spreading the ukulele love worldwide. As our community grew, we realized the need for a special place to celebrate this fantastic instrument. In April 2012, we found that place – a ukulele showroom and store like no other.
Now, here's the fun part. We want you to be a part of our ukulele world. Bring your ukulele, step into our unique ukulele sanctuary, and join us in the world of strums and melodies. Our showroom isn't just a store; it's a lively hub where ukulele enthusiasts come together to share their passion. So, come on over, hang out, and jam with fellow music lovers.
At UKE Republic, we see the ukulele as more than just an instrument. It's a source of joy, a symbol of unity, and a gateway to endless musical adventures. Join our ukulele family, and let's make some beautiful music together!
