Leading the pack is the 0XK Uke created in partnership with American lifestyle and apparel brand Life is Good. This soprano ukulele features a vibrant collage of the most iconic Life is Good graphics across nearly 30 years of history and is crafted from durable Hawaiian koa HPL.
Each uke also has a hand-rubbed finish and comes with a sustainable soft shell case for you to carry those good vibes around.
Listing at $349, the 0XK is only for sale in the US, its territories and military bases, Canada, Mexico, and Japan.

Next up, the 0 Soprano Uke features a top, back, and sides that are made from sinker mahogany — wood recovered from a riverbed in Belize that’s said to offer a richer and more complex tone due to its greater density.
Along with a rosewood fingerboard and rosewood bridge, the uke comes finished in a high-quality satin lacquer and will set you back $1,599. A softshell case is also included with each purchase. The 0 Soprano Uke is also available as a left-handed model.

The final member to join Martin’s ukulele family is the S1K, a soprano-sized uke featuring a Koa construction on its top, back, and sides. At $499, the instrument sports a select hardwood neck and sipo fingerboard, Graphtech Ratio tuners, and is topped with an ultra-thin hand-rubbed finish to complete the look.
