I'm sorry to say that I have not had a great experience. I was hesitant to buy online, but after getting assurances from Mike that the Uke would be setup correctly I bought a mid-priced Uke, ($369, not the cheapest on the block.) After receiving it I had the following issues: 1. I broke three 1st strings in the first week. 2. The 1st string tuner was siting so awkwardly in the head that I could hardly turn it. 3. The 3rd string started buzzing as soon as I tried a different set of strings. Via email, I was advised to sand the nut slot on the 1st string; not something I would have expected to do on a new instrument. Also I unscrewed and adjusted the tuner. Fortunately, that did help with the string breakage. However, I still get a nasty fret buzz no matter what strings I try. In my last email to Mike I asked if I could return the Uke or if he might be willing to reimburse me if I take it to a local tech for work. No reply. Now I've spent an additional $45 with my local Tech for nut and fret work. Still buzzing, and the Tech says "it's the best I can do." (And this guy knows what he's doing.) Frustrating. First and last time I'll buy an instrument without laying hands on it first. DISCLAIMER: My initial complaint to them was AFTER the five day return window, but obviously still within the warranty period.

This store is super great! They have a vast selection of great quality ukuleles and accessories. The staff was also wonderful. Tip: Yes, go into the massive brick building. The store is inside.

Excellent setup work by Mike. If you’re just getting started on the ukulele, buy from a reputable dealer like Uke Republic who will do a good setup on your new Uke. Highly recommended.

What a wonderful experience, really! Mike spent hours with me showing me so many options and was so patient while I asked a million questions and then finally decided which one to get. The store is beautiful. Selection is enormous! And the service experience was the best I’ve had in a very long time. I am so glad I drove right by a dozen big box guitar stores to make my purchases at this gem of a shop! We are very lucky to have such an awesome ukulele store here in the Atlanta area and I just can’t say enough good things about it to do it justice! :-) Thanks, UKE Republic!

We are so very lucky to have this store in the Atlanta area!!! When I was interested in buying my first Ukulele, I had done some research online about purchasing a quality instrument and found UKE Republic. I emailed Mike about a few I was interested in and he responded right away. So thankful I can physically go to a store to try a variety of ukuleles. The store is such a joy to go into - so much to look at and play with! Mike (the owner) is extremely helpful and energetic about each ukulele he carries. I love how he knows the history and story of all the companies, luthiers, and woods related to each one. My husband and I enjoy our time getting to talk with him.

This place is awesome! The store itself has an amazing selection of Ukes to try, along with a very knowledgeable owner. Mike took the time to answer all of my questions about the Ukes I was interested in and helped me make an informed decision on an intermediate Ukulele. He even took the time to help diagnose the buzz my current uke was making. I didn't buy a new Uke that day, but I knew I had to have the Kala Solid Flame Maple Tenor. After hearing Mike tell me that his friend helped design it for Kala, and hearing it's sweet sound, I called Mike at the store a few days later to make sure the floor model was still available. I put the order in at the online store, and he had it shipped for me that day!!! It arrived the next day (disclaimer - I live in the same state as the store) and I was strumming right away! I will be shopping with the Uke Republic for all of my future Uke-needs. Thanks Mike!!!

Ukuleles are their passion and it shows! It shows in the brands they curate, their great setups, their website and their store are both such an wonderful experience to visit and shop. Don't miss any workshops or concerts they put on, always a fun time at Uke Republic! One of the original ukulele specialty stores on the mainland, since like 2007.

I just bought my first ukulele through UKE Republic and the customer service was the best I've experienced in years! 🌺 I found UKE Republic through their YouTube channel when I was searching for comparisons and I really appreciated that Mike plays the same tune on every ukulele so you can actually hear the subtle differences between each style and wood. Imagine my shock when I called UKE Republic to inquire about purchasing an ukulele and I heard the same friendly voice from YouTube greet me on the phone! Mike was so kind, sent me photos of the exact ukuleles he had in store so I could choose the wood grain I preferred, and even made a video playing the instrument before I purchased it so I could hear the sound. Mike gave purchasing an ukulele online the same feeling as shopping for one in person and he delivers that top-notch service at an affordable price. If you're looking for the best ukulele buying experience, I highly recommend UKE Republic! PS - he has 1 more spalted maple pineapple uke in stock!

Exquisitly quaint little ukulele store on the second floor of Austell Threadmill run by EXPERTS. Today they had an event like "Open Mic" ukulele players. Pretty awesome Bluegrass, Alternative and even a little pop.

I had a TBI a few years ago due to a bad accident, have very high anxiety cognitive issues, and am really new to playing instruments in general. I have to say that out of the chains and a couple local shops that I've been to, I feel the most comfortable at this shop. They've got a HUGE selection of ukes on hand and Mike is a really cool guy. The store, while on the cozy side, is very welcoming in general and Mike (I met his wife/partner a few days ago and she is nice as well but haven't really talked much with her) is a genuinely cool cat. You don't have to worry about them "trying to make a sale" and I've plunked around on everything from a $50 entry level instrument to ones way up there over $1k. I love the "check this out!" and positive vibe of the place. I've come in several times to figure out what I'm looking for and they've been super nice and very patient. Zero pressure, great prices, great selection on hand and very cool folk that run the place. Couldn't ask for a better mom and pop shop where they really dig what they do. If you can manage, seriously swing by.
