Carltone
Cigar Box Ukuleles • Basses • Guitars
Carltone is dedicated to building finely crafted cigar box ukuleles, bass ukuleles, guitars, and other stringed instruments. Every one is handmade at our home in Palm Desert, California. We scour our local thrift and antique shops, garage sales, as well as the internet, looking for interesting boxes to become Carltones. It is our sincere wish that yours is a lifelong love affair with your Carltone ukulele, bass, or guitar.
Carltone Cigar Box Ukuleles, Basses, and Guitars are available in our shop below and on Etsy. If you have any questions or if you you'd like to choose your Carltone in person, drop us a line.

What happens when a suave, ukulele slinging wolf meets a bass playing hooded hottie in the woods all alone?
We've been thinking a lot about escaping lately so when Jerry Jeff Walker passed away this is the first song I played.
It's 1984 and vampiric, new wave crooners are stalking the moon-lit, rain-soaked streets. Happy Halloween!
Amy and I cover the Freedy Johnston hit "Bad Reputation," a splendid slice of 90s adult alternative.
