George’s Music - 7830 Byron Drive, West Palm Beach 561-242-0345 (or www.georgesmusic.com ). George's Music has a great selection and helpful, friendly staff. Worth the drive.
Rhode Island
Wakefield Music - Wakefield, Rhode Island
Great service, lots and lots of ukuleles to choose from!
BTW - Wherever you purchase your ukulele, don’t be afraid to negotiate! If you go to a store, they should always be willing to take off at least 5%. Also, if you've never been inside a music store before, don't be intimidated! Here's a helpful hint. Ask the salesperson to tune the ukuleles for you. Try as many as you wish. Ask him/her to demonstrate how the different ukuleles sound. Take your time and don't be rushed or intimidated. You're the person with the money - they should be eager to help! Pick an instrument that you'll enjoy taking out and playing!
