Described by Fender as a “bold take on the four-string classic”, the instrument has a built-in preamp, while its body is adorned with Eilish’s signature ‘blohsh’ symbol. As Guitar World reports, Eilish described how the ukulele was the first instrument that she learned, and continues to be her main writing and recording tool. Fender recently added a handful of Billie Eilish songs to its Fender Play learning service for others to learn, too. “The ukulele was the first instrument I learned: it’s where I started writing, and where I found new ways of writing that I had never tried before,” she said alongside the announcement. “It inspires a different kind of writing. The rules of the ukulele are simple, and basically if you know three chords you can play almost any song. I hope my Fender Signature ukulele inspires people to start playing, and start writing – anyone can do it.” You can find out more about the ‘Billie Eilish Uke’, which is retailing for £239 or $299, here, and watch a video from Eilish and Fender below.
