    5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful instrument!
    Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2024
    This is my first ukulele, but I play a variety of other instruments. I hadn't been practicing my others and wanted a fresh new challenge so I bought this uke with a 50 credit someone gave me for christmas. IT IS AMAZING. It has a bright punchy sound, as spruce top instruments do, sounds wonderful, and stays in tune nicely once you get the strings properly stretched. In the beginning, the instrument is likely to slip out of tune. THIS IS NORMAL. It took about a week of playing and tuning every day before the strings stayed in tune and would be less than 4 cents from perfect pitch (1 cent is 1/100th of a semitone and the point where i can start to notice a note is out of tune.)
    I have had this uke for 6 months now and I still love it!!!! I am a little rough with my instruments. I like to wear my uke on my back, via the included strap, and walk around the house with it when I'm not playing (which i usually am). as a result i have bonked it into the wall or door frames more than a few times. Rarely does this bad boy slip out of tune even with a solid thump. I'm very impressed with the quality I received for the price. The case is wonderful. I actually found my son standing on the case and uke one time when we were moving. But it remained perfectly in tact! so the case WORKS lol

    1st the cons.... If you hold it up to the light in certain ways, you can see some slight discrepancies in the finish. But you do have to look for them. For the most part, you will not notice them, so not really a problem. I am being picky. 2nd, the tuners are not as silky smooth as I might like, but well good enough to do the job. Again, being picky. They are perfectly serviceable, and for the price, just fine. 3rd. I'd like the lower bridge to be a little wider, opening the strings a bit. But that would be my preference. Again, picky. It is good enough the way it is. 4th, and the worst thing, is that the nut at the top is a bit high, making the string action too high and then a bit stiff and hard to play. A trip to Harbor Freight for some really fine files and a few minutes filing down the slots fixed that problem. That is called setting up the instrument, and that is not unusual even on an expensive instrument. Is it playable out of the box? Yes it is. I just wanted a bit lower action and the repair was simple enough.
    Now for the pros: It does look good. Sounds good. the frets seem to be accurately spaced. Some complained that the ends of some of the frets were ragged, but on this instrument, they were nicely tapered, so no complaints there. The fretboard seems to be very flat. No buzzing strings, so that is good.
    Some complained that there were position marks only on the face of the fretboard, but this one has them on the face as well as the side. Sometimes I feel that some reviews I read are for a different instrument.....
    Another comment I read was that there was no way to attach a strap on some instruments. But this one came with strap mounts, and even a nicely colored strap. Cool! It comes with an electronic tuner, (which worked much better once I installed the supplied battery.....!) and some spare strings as well as a polishing cloth. And of course, a perfectly serviceable carrying case that has a side handle as well as back straps and a pouch for those strings, a capo if you want one, and spare picks (which it came with).
    So the bottom line is, that this is a nice inexpensive 26" Ukulele that sounds good enough, plays easily, looks good, and comes with everything you need to keep it in tune and to play it. No directions, though. You need to get some chord charts and tuning charts if you are new to the instrument. Would I buy another one, or recommend it to a friend? Absolutely yes.
    Just a note, keep the tuner in the case with the ukulele. It will not fit in the accessory pouch.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Incredible ukulele for the money. But needs a little work.
    Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2023
    TLDR: It's not perfect, but great for the price and the issues I had were pretty easy to fix.

    Background:
    I bought this 4 months ago and wanted to wait to review until I got past initial impressions.

    I'm working on becoming a better guitar player. I kept a soprano ukulele by my living room chair to play with, keep my fingers nimble, and not be so hung up on standard guitar tuning. The soprano was a little small, so I got this to try and see if I liked a concert-sized uke better. I intentionally went a little cheap on it, as it was an experiment. I do not record and only play for myself and my kids, so I can only judge for that.

    Pros:
    The structure of this thing is amazing for the money. The neck is at a perfect angle, the wood is nice, and I like the finish. I'm really happy that even through a lot of use and pretty big temperature and humidity changes, the fit and finish of the body and neck have held up well. My soprano ukuleles cost a little more than this and both have gradually cracked where the neck meets the body from the stress of the strings. This has had 0 issue with that at all, which is impressive at this price.

    I have no issues with the bridge, and the nut is sufficient. The tuners are a little nicer than the open style on my soprano uke and do the job. Not great, but great for the money. It holds its tuning as well as any nylon stringed instrument with broken in strings. I like the fretboard itself, and the inlays are well done with no rough/noticeable edges.

    Subjectively, it's a very pretty instrument. It looks a lot classier to me than many others at this price and above.

    Cons:
    The fretwork. This is not shocking at this price point. The good is that they are not so bad as to tear up your fingers as you move up and down the neck. The bad is that they do jut out a bit in addition to the normal lower quality finishing that you get with anything but the most expensive instruments. Often times this happens because the frets are cut before the wood fully dries out and shrinks.

    To be fair, you are not going to get better than this situation unless you pay probably at least $300. That's not worth it if you are a beginner.

    The bad thing on mine is that the 3rd fret was too high on the G string. I got fret buzz with only the second fret on that string (the A note). That's extra annoying since it's used for the A and D families of chords. I only have 1 so I don't know if this was aberrant or a theme.

    The included strings may go here as well. They're sufficient but take a long time to break in, are a little rough, and just aren't very pleasant to play. But I don't think I've ever gotten strings with an instrument I particularly liked.

    Fixing it all:
    You could go pay someone to fix this, but it would likely a little more than the instrument itself. Probably $80-$100 from a local luthier. That total is still a pretty good bargain for this instrument, but it's really not bad to do yourself if you're patient and enjoy working on small things.

    I got the Stew Mac fret dressing kit after having watched a videos that they and others have on YouTube. It does cost about the same as this instrument, so would only be really worth it if you're doing multiple instruments. It's useful for all but high-end fretted instruments, so if you have other ukes, guitars, basses, etc. you can make them all nicer with it. You can also get away with a small file and some fine wet/dry sandpaper.

    Just be careful and take your time. Watch at least a few videos of luthiers doing this work to give you a head start on the technique. You do not need to remove a lot of material. Do a small amount of work, check with your hands, and repeat if you need to. Don't do this if you're heavy handed or get frustrated easily. Doing too little is fine, but doing too much will ruin a good instrument. This is actually a good instrument to practice on given the price :).

    I profiled down the top of that 3rd fret and yay! no more fret buzz. I also dressed all the fret edges keeping them from sticking out and rounding them nicely. The bottom side of the neck was much worse than the top. I put a very small amount of work on the edges of the fretboard itself, rounding them just a tad for comfort. That's not necessary and will happen naturally with use. It just makes the instrument feel more broken in.

    I tossed the extra set of strings, and I use Ernie Ball ball end ukulele strings (I'm lazy and they're easy). They break in much more quickly, are smoother, and play better to me. You may prefer other strings, but I like those. Being nylon, they don't require changing very often.

    Final thoughts, current state:
    I love the concert footprint. It's much easier for me to handle and the tone is nicer than a soprano to me.

    After swapping strings and putting in a little work, this thing is a very nice instrument. Like shockingly good. It plays like an expensive ukulele and sounds amazing. I'll get years of joy out of this and won't ever need to upgrade. I'm very impressed by the structure and durability.

    The one flaw that makes me drop this from 5 to 4 stars is the issue with the 3rd fret. That could be very frustrating to a beginner and make them think that they are struggling with their technique. Knowing that it's the third fret causing an issue with the second probably isn't obvious to someone who isn't way too deep into this stuff and the work to fix that is scarier than a lot of people would be willing to do.

    I'm very happy I bought this, but I also enjoy the work.
