The Body

Classic tobacco burst on a handcrafted semi-hollow thinline ash body.

Perform with ease and confidence at gigs with strap buttons fitted to every ukulele, providing secure and comfortable playing during standing performances.

The Neck

Unleash your full musical potential with our hand-shaped Maple neck and Wenge fretboard, designed for great playability. Real abalone block markers make chords easy to place. Carve top headstock with matching tobacco burst finish.

Experience smooth and effortless playability with no fret buzz, thanks to a carefully executed fret job.

Equipped with an adjustable truss rod, the maple neck is, however, robust enough for a ukulele-sized instrument, so you likely won’t need to make any adjustments.

Resonant Hand-carved 35mm Bone Nut.

The Pickups

P90 style Single coil neck and bridge pickups. Our P90’s are a little warmer than the standard single but are still bright with lots of zing.

A three way selector switch coupled with tone and volume controls, which allows for easy control of a wide range of tonal effects from the ukulele itself. Fitted with a phase inversion switch for added versatility.

Discover unparalleled tone with pick-ups that are hand scatter wound and treated with the traditional method of wax potting. The hot bees wax soak enhances the distinctive tone and eliminates any unwanted feedback.

Other Stuff

Black scratchplate.

To accommodate the 5 strings we have hand carved a bone floating bridge for this instrument.

This 20 inch baritone solid body electric ukulele is carefully set-up with a comfortable low action, so that its ready to rock, straight out of the box!

Ideal for kids and adults of all ages.

Many of the parts are created in-house from scratch, eg the bridge control plate, pickups and the neck. The only outsourced parts are the electronics and the machine-heads.

Padded gig-bag is included.

The Sound

This is a solid body baritone electric ukulele with a unique sound that lends itself to being played with over-drive and other standard electric guitar effects. As such it needs to be played through a guitar amplifier.

You can listen to the Ocelot here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLBoIth6t54&t=212s (Thanks to Kym Warner for the demo) or here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-_YYuG7hsw&t=3s

Strings are regular electric guitar strings. You can use a set of 11’s and add a 13 for a high g or use the fourth string from the set for a low G. You can use thinner strings but the tuning stability becomes less manageable with thinner strings. Thicker strings are also ok. 12’s give a tight feel but 13’s are a bit too stiff. It comes down to personal preference.
