Spalted Maple is a beautiful wood with a very interesting grain pattern. Maple is generally brighter than other common woods used in ukuleles, such as Koa and Mahogany. That makes the Spalted Maple ukuleles naturally bright and lively, with good projection that pops in mixes.
The Bondi Spalted Maple series ukuleles uses this stunning tone wood for the top, back, and sides of the ukuleles. A natural wood binding is used to accentuate the grain.
The Rosewood fretboard sits on a solid mahogany neck and is capped with rosewood binding, high ratio chrome plated tuners and a bone nut to keep your uke perfectly in tune. The Spalted Maple series is available in Soprano, Concert, and Tenor sizes.
Like all Bondi ukes this comes with a durable travel bag and a bunch of accessories to get you playing as soon as you unbox it!

I have never had an easier or more enjoyable online shopping experience. The ukulele is absolutely stunning, sounds beautiful and arrived very quickly. Would definitely recommend UkuleleMate to anyone looking to buy a ukulele.
Really good. Loved the follow up. Sounds and looks amazing. No complaints
Absolutely beautiful ukulele with an equally beautiful sound. I was so pleased with my purchase and have recommended Ukulelemate to all of my friends and family. All of the extras that are part of the bonus pack are of outstanding quality. I am one happy ukulele player. I am very tempted to buy another in a few months. I am so glad I decided to purchase my ukulele through this company.
Highly recommend. Service was excellent and the products are beautiful. Thank you for providing us with an amazing ukulele.
What a wonderful shopping experience 😁 The customer service is exceptional and prompt too, I am so happy with my new Uke! I loved that I got to chose what woodgrain pattern I liked best out of the photo gallery of available ukes. Added an extra specia touch. Shipping was super fast too! The quality of the uke is superb and I can't wait to show it off at my next uke group practice! The bundle of goodies that came with it are all great too, a very well thought out beginners bundle that gives you everything you need to get started. Loved the follow up emails on how to tune, restring and learning some chords too. Cannot fault a single thing, went above and beyond my expectations! Thanks Joel 😁😁
Amazing customer service! Amazing product. Thank you John and the Ukulelemate team. I simply amazed the support you and your team provided me.
Sm-C-50 is great looking. Superb sounds and well balanced. Feels great to hold and play. Simply top notch product.
All ukuleles under $1000 are made in China. There are a handful of instruments made in the USA/Australia but they come with a hefty price tag and aren't always worth the price. Often the more affordable instruments are just as good, if not better. At ukulelemate, we have tested thousands of instruments and found the sweetspot where quality meets value.
Yes you can! We have the best returns policy in the Australian music industry. No matter what you buy from us, we will take it back within 60 days and give you a full refund for the original purchase. What's even better - we pay for the return shipping. It's simple and easy.
We offer a lifetime warranty on all products. You won't find this anywhere else in the world, most music stores offer 12 months, maybe 24 months if you are lucky. We sell products that are high quality and will last. We stand behind them with a lifetime warranty.
Each ukulele that leaves our warehouse will undergo a strict QC and setup process by our experienced staff. The setup process if fairly similar for all instruments but we will spend more time on the more expensive models. The budget models will receive all of the crucial checks but we won't spends as much time on things such as fretboard lemon oil.
We package the ukes extremely well with our own thick custom made boxes. Each year we ship thousands of ukuleles all across Australia and the world. We guarantee you will receive your uke in 100% perfect condition.
