August New Arrivals

As Singapore nears its 52th birthday, we wanted to do a special dedication to our Little Red Dot. From supplying music gear to 1940s military bands to equipping Singapore’s clubs with cutting-edge DJ gear, Swee Lee has been an integral part of the local music scene. In fact, most of our staff like Dennis Sim are well-known names in Singapore’s music circles. We’ll always be here for musicians, young and old to ignite their passion. Here are some handpicked items to celebrate together:

The Makala Dolphin line is an excellent first ukulele. It has that classic ‘uke’ look that also sounds great. At under $70 it’s exceptional value, and will get anyone enthused about playing one of the world’s most portable and popular instruments.
