- This was the video I was most excited to show off from our recent trip to California. Spurred by some recent comments a well known friend of the store made in a Ukulele review; I made a special trip upto Petaluma, California to visit Marcos, Juan, Mike and the team at the Kala USA custom shop. This is the new spiritual home of the Revelator and it was a real eye opener at the skill, love and care that goes into these instruments.
Our current range and the available Revelators we have will always be found in this link;

Nothing wrong with a good old fashioned robot doing neck carving. 😀
Glad to see the boys taking things forward. I'll email Marcus about his spokeshave technique... you can avoid that chatter. Well done Alex. Petaluma is a lovely place full of lovely people.
*GASP* A left-handed Revelator! Yay!
That Cypress and Mahogany SUS model would suit me very nicely. I love its smooth tone.
Till I put my glasses on, you guys looked like twins.
😆😆
These revelators sound so sweet, lovely mids and very nice sustain.
Thank you for sharing the video about this amazing workshop. Those instruments sound glorious.
Oh dear such beautiful instruments and this tone, this sound! Now I'll forevermore want one no matter how expensive....
wow Alex, this song melted me, bravo well done, even you have a very good instrument, it's you who gives the cherry ond the ice cream, bravo
Thats a lovely thing to say, thank you.
Gotta say I love the old hands on approach.....amazing. The dedication is so admirable. Love it! Congrats on your revelator! P.s. Great jam! 😊
Thanks so much! We threw that jam together and knew it sounded special. We will definitely be using it again.
Awesome video! I'd love to know what strings you eventually end up with on your personal Revelator. 😀👍
Wonderful!
A lefty !!!
This is such a great and inspiring video Guys! Wonderful, thank you for showing and explaining so much… amazing to see!
The sustain on these is just magnificent!
I think so. I've been playing uke for 16 years this year and I can't think of another production ukulele with this clean a sound and sustain. One off ukes every now and again sure, but consistently, nothing is like the Revelator right now.
No Robots were harmed in the Making of this Video.
'Ukulele is Complete!'
I was able to find one of these at a local music store. I was really impressed.
Wonderful ukes, but unfortunately they won’t work for me. I’ve played guitars and ukes for 40+ years and I rely on the fret markers as I play up the neck. I’ve tried focusing on the side markers but my belly turns the neck into my body making them hard to see. Still enjoy watching these great ukes in videos. Thanks
Yeah, I don't understand why Kala would omit the fret markers.
Is Alex now owner of SUS or is it now owned by Absolute Music and run independently by Alex ?
The Cedar top sounds awesome?
Alex is SUS, SUS is Alex... It feels a bit tacky discussing this stuff but we are trading independently of Absolute Music inside the Absolute Music centre. That being said, they have been amazing at sharing resources with us and we feel very connected to each others teams now... my biggest worry is Absolute pinching my staff 😆😆
The Cedar top was my favourite I think too...
What strings are these using please?
Daddario silverwound nylon basses and worth Brown trebles
