The first ukuleles were developed in Hawaii in the 1800s, as a result of
Portuguese influence. Native Hawaiians enjoyed music from a Portuguese
instrument called the machete and adapted it to suit Hawaiian tastes. The ukulele
soon spread to mainland America during the 1910s, where it became an immediate
sensation. They quickly became very popular because they could be quickly and
cheaply made from a small amount of wood. After the World Wars, plastic ukuleles
revitalized the declining ukulele fad by making them even more affordable to the
average American. Today, ukuleles are still enjoyed by many enthusiasts and come
in a wide variety of shapes and sounds.
