Ordered as a gift for my husband. Very nice package with pretty much everything needed to play. Sound is great as are instructions. Would recommend for a beginning player.

My sister was going to Belize for vacation, so I was having a good sulk (because I was not in Belize on vacation). I responded by purchasing a $55 ukulele with accessories. In life, one must adjust. My background: I know how to read music, but I've never been able to play a guitar. When I tried in the past, my fingers just weren't strong enough to fret properly.I'd read that ukes were much easier to fret because the strings are soft and the tunings are slack. Also I liked the idea of learning some simple songs, and having a hobby that does not involve screen time. So I took 2 days reading about ukes and researching my options on Amazon. Yes, I wanted to purchase on Amazon because I would not be out any money if the Great Experiment didn't work out (free returns).Could it be possible? $55 for a whole setup for a musical instrument that isn't a toy? The reviews were good and the accompanying photos looked likewise, so . . . 3 days later I get a ukulele in the mail. It was neatly boxed with a case and an accessories bag that included everything you need to get started. I plunked away that whole first day. My wrist hurt. My hands hurt. My ribs hurt! (I'm 60, with high mileage.) Tendons that hadn't been stretched in years were stretching.But I persevered; watched some youtube instruction videos; worked on holding the uke properly. Eventually bought a couple of things to help my journey along: A rubber doughnut hand strengthener. A better strap (the nylon one included irritated my neck). Burt Casey's Ukulele Primer on Kindle. Here's what I think about this specific ukulele:It's great. It looks very nice -- I love the clean look of the open head and buttons (?) that anchor the strings at the bottom. I like the faux abalone ring around the sound hole. It tunes nicely. I'm pretty sure the koa is laminate, but it doesn't look cheap and the color of the wood is not too light or too dark (I was after a traditional uke look).After about 10 days, it needed very little tuning or adjustment when I practiced. It sounds lovely. The tuner works great and is very easy to use. Some have said they didn't like the strings that came with this uke, but I have had zero problems with them. I had heard that the first week or so would require frequent tuning until the strings "settled," and that's exactly how it went.I'm enjoying adding a new chord every few days, and strumming and practicing throughout the day. My hands are still sore, but I'm gaining hand strength and flexibility. That little rubber donut things is great for hand workouts (they sell these on Amazon). For practice I work my way through my chord progressions, play simple songs, and follow the lesson plan in my book. My one piece of advice: Use the strap. It's so helpful as a beginner to not have to worry about ukulele hugging technique when you're trying to focus on your ukulele fretting technique.So the experiment was a success. My sister's back from Belize with sunburn and tales to tell. And I've got 6 cords, the truth and a ukulele : )

I have a concert ukulele and I've been spent a lot of time trying to get my son an inexpensive soprano ukulele. I'm very happy that I found this one! It is of great quality, beautiful finish, lovely sound and will stay in tune after long time play! Not to mention that it came with so many accessories!For a small kid, you definitely need the strap as they can't really hold the ukulele tightly by their hands. The travel bag looks nice and durable. I also found that there's tutorial book included -- actually it is very well written, with basic infomation, chords, strum pattern and a simple sample song, the book should be fantastic for beginners.I also uploaded a side by side photo with my Luna concert ukulele, which is over twice of the price, and not having any accessories. The terms of sound, Luna brand is brighter and thicker though.This is definitely a great value for the price. I've been play it myself for 2 days and love it! Would definitely recommend it.

Received today. I'm a piano & guitar player. This is my 1st Uke. I bought it to carry in my RV. I've learned quickly. All very nice, finish & electronics, but all frets are very ruff edges & will have to be filed. (See photos of how I taped it off & filed). I watched a video on "how to fix it". Etching & binding are nice. Nice Uke for the price. The clip on tuner it shows in the photo did not come in the goodie pouch. I called Amazon & they sent me a coupon. I added the little cute turtle sticker fret dots, ordered from Amazon. Made it my own!

It came with everything I needed, several extras, sounds great, and holds tune after the strings are broken in. If I was purchasing another one, this is what I'd snag. I'm not an expert, and I'm sure there are things more experienced Uke players could point out, but moving over from guitar and being relatively unfamiliar with Ukes, this was a perfect fit for what I wanted/needed.

Great qualityPurchased for my 4th graderTeacher gave him compliments

I loved this ukulele from the moment I opened the box, it's everything I wanted. First of all, there are many accessories, a beautiful storage bag, tuner, strap, picks, instruction manual...The whole kit was a nice intro kit for beginners. Then the instrument itself is mahogany, it's much more beautiful than shown and also it has a nice sound. All in all, this was a perfect choice and I highly recommend it!！I can't wait to show it in front of my friends！

Speaking as a beginner to the ukulele, I’m not very impressed. The instrument is nice enough but needs tuning about every 20 minutes and the tuner stopped displaying C after three days. I hope I change my mind in time when the strings stretch, but for now, meh. And the booklet was not helpful. 8 pages, 2 of which are for a product I didn’t buy, repeated in multiple languages.

Great beginner's bundle. It includes everything you need and more for a beginner's class.

Nice！

ソプラノを持っていましたが、ソプラノだとハイポジが足りない時があり、テナーを購入。☆５で一旦レビューしましたが、かなりクリティカルな事に気が付いたので☆２にします。あくまでも私の感想なので他の人は違うかもしれません。・使い勝手 ☆１つ　写真を付けましたが、弦がフレットの端にすごく近いです。　そのため、1弦Aを開放して、4弦Gのローポジを弾く際に1弦Aにどうしても指がぶつかりミュートがかかります。　例えば、Am 0, 0, 0, 2 のようなコードを弾く際に、2を人差し指で押えるとその指の付け根の部分がどうしても1弦に触れてしまう。　　テナーウクレレがそういうものか判りませんが、弾ける曲に制限がかかりそうです。　・音質 ☆5つ　ソプラノよりも大きいからだと思いますが、良い音が出ていると思います。　マホガニー材との事なので素人判断ですが音質は安心ではないかなと思います。・色 ☆3つ　写真がすでに薄い感じの色だったので危惧していましたが、　実際のものもマホガニー？と思ってしまうような色です。　よくあるソプラノの奇麗な茶色ではないので少し残念です。・品質・付属品 ☆５つ　この値段でよくここまできれいに仕上げるなと感心します。　付属品も予備の弦やピックやチューナーまであります。（ピックは個人的に不要ですが）　1点注意点はチューナーは楽器の指定をする必要があって、　Uc（ウクレレ）を選択しないとチューニングの音が出てこないようです。　記憶では、Cが出てこないでBの次がいきなりDになっていたような…で故障かと思って焦りました。・不安点 ☆？　弦のとめる部分ですが、4本の弦をネジネジしています。言葉では書きづらいので写真参考にしていただけたらと思います。　弦を交換する際に、同じように出来るか…？という不安があります。・総合 ☆２つ　品質は使い勝手に書いたネックが細すぎる問題以外はかなり良いと思います。　ただ、一番大切なのは使い勝手だと思うので、その部分を大きく反映して総合を☆２つとさせていただきました。　ただ、私の場合はというだけで他の人はうまく弾けるかもしれません。

I gave this item to my daughter for her birthday. She is an adult, lol. Adventurous. She said it is well made. Thanks for the quick delivery. It is a good product.

I am new to Ukelele playing therefore this Ukelele is perfect for me.
