🎶 Ukulele Accessories & Essentials – Everything You Need, All in One Place

 A ukulele is more than just four strings and good vibes. It’s an instrument, a companion, and (if you’re doing it right) something you take everywhere—from front porches to festivals, beach bonfires to bedroom jam sessions. So, it deserves a little support—literally and figuratively.

Ukulele Accessories - Your One-Stop-Ukulele-Shop UKE Republic

That’s where the right accessories come in. At UKE Republic, we carry a curated collection of ukulele accessories to keep your instrument protected, sounding its best, and ready to play wherever inspiration strikes. Here's a breakdown of the gear we carry—and why it actually matters.

🎒 Ukulele Cases & Bags: Protection That Travels

Whether you're gigging across town or headed to a mountaintop jam, your uke deserves to ride in style. We offer everything from semi-rigid Transit Series cases, hard foam Kala cases, and deluxe archtop options to tropical print gig bags and even vintage-style tweed cases. A good case protects your investment from temperature changes, dings, and life’s unpredictability. (Looking at you, TSA.)

Popular Picks:

  • Kala TSUB Transit Semi-Rigid Cases

  • Kala Elite Olive Tweed Archtop

  • Pineapple & Traditional Hard Cases

🎵 Ukulele Strings: The Heart of Your Sound

Not all strings are created equal. Your tone, volume, and feel depend heavily on what you’re strumming with. We carry a wide variety—from Aquila’s classic New Nylgut to Worth fluorocarbons, Living Water, D'Addario, La Bella, and even Low G singles for customization.

Changing strings is like giving your uke a tune-up—it’s cheap, satisfying, and can completely refresh your sound.

Why You Need ‘Em:

  • Boost tone clarity

  • Adjust feel/playability

  • Explore different tunings (like Low G)

🎸 Ukulele Straps: Play Freely

Ukulele straps aren’t just for show (although we’ve got some lookers!). They free your hands and take pressure off your wrist, making it easier to play standing or moving. We stock strap hook styles, button-style, and wide comfort straps from top brands.

Staff Favorite: Fremont Sound Hole Hook Straps – no installation required.

🔧 Ukulele Gear: Tuners, Capos, Picks & More

These are the quiet MVPs in your gig bag:

  • Digital Tuners (Kala Klipz, D'Addario Eclipse): Keep you in tune anywhere.

  • Capos: Transpose on the fly—great for vocal accompaniment.

  • Picks: Add texture to your tone or protect nails.

  • Winders: Save your fingers and time when changing strings.

If you’re not using these yet… you’re working too hard.

🎤 Amps & Pickups: Plug In, Play Loud

Want to perform or just jam with volume? We’ve got pickups like the KNA UK-1 and portable amps like the Laney Mini Lion and MINI-BASS_NX. Add an amp cable and you’re stage-ready (or living room hero-ready).

🧽 Ukulele Care: Keep It Clean & Hydrated

Your ukulele’s not high-maintenance—but it does appreciate a little TLC. We carry:

  • Humidifiers & Hygrometers (like the Oasis OH-18): Prevent warping and cracking in dry climates.

  • Cleaners, Conditioners, and Microfiber Cloths (Music Nomad, LoPrinzi): Keep it looking and feeling fresh.

  • Fretboard Oils: Feed that wood!

Think of this stuff as skincare for your instrument.

🎶 Stands & Hangers: Show It Off, Keep It Safe

Stop leaning your uke in a corner (you know better). We’ve got adjustable floor stands, wall hangers in various wood finishes, and portable CooperStands that fold flat and fit in your gig bag.

Bonus: Your uke stays accessible, so you’re more likely to pick it up and play.

🌈 Fun Extras: Stickers, Shakers, & More

Because sometimes the little things bring the biggest smiles. Check out:

  • Shakerleles (yep, a uke-shaped shaker!)

  • Vintage-style travel sticker sets

  • Music stands

  • Polish kits & multi-tools

Whether you’re dressing up your case or adding percussion to your playing, we’ve got quirky, high-quality extras to inspire your creativity.

🛠️ Need Installation or Setup Help?

We don’t just sell accessories—we install them, too. Need strap buttons, tuners, or pickups professionally added? We offer expert in-house installation on select accessories like the GraphTech Rat:o 6:1 Tune-A-Lele tuners, pickups, and more.

Final Strum: Why It All Matters

Accessories might seem like “extras,” but they’re really essentials. They protect your instrument, improve your sound, and make playing more fun and accessible. Whether you’re a beginner just learning your first chords or a pro performing under the lights, the right accessories elevate your entire experience.

Have Your Low G and High G, and Play Them Too! Hey there, fellow uke enthusiast! So, you’ve been strumming away on your ukulele and loving it, but now you’re wondering about that big question: should you go with Low G or High G strings? It’s a common dilemma for us uke players, and I’m here to help you figure it out. What’s the Deal with Low G and High G? High G Strings High G strings are the traditional choice for the ukulele. When you’re tuned to High G, the fourth string (that’s the G string) is tuned higher than the third string (C). This setup gives you that classic, bright, and jangly ukulele sound that makes everyone think of sunny beaches and palm trees. Why High G Rocks: Super bright and happy sound Perfect for strumming chords Gives you that iconic uke vibe Lightweight and easy to play But…: Not great for lower melodies and solos Can feel a bit limited for more complex music Low G Strings Low G strings are a bit different. Here, the fourth string (G) is tuned lower, below the...
