Dunlop gives you a chance to win one of the two Kala Solid Acacia Ukuleles that are hand painted by Dirty Donny Gillies.
The winner will also receive 12 sets of brand new Dunlop Ukulele Strings, to ensure that the free Ukulele is played with fresh strings all year round.
The Solid Acacia Tenor Ukuleles that are to be given away are from Kala. They feature a slotted-headstock, rosewood edge binding and classic herringbone purfling.
