Reviews around starter (4.63 of 5)

  • I think this is a great starter ukulele, the sound quality is decent, it comes in great shape and is very light
  • I'm learning how to play the ukulele and this is a good starter
  • It's a good starter, but I will be looking for a more quality uke, as I've become more serious about learning.
  • I've enjoyed learning to play and the Diamond Head has been a good starter uke.
  • Not a bad starter, but it just isn't what I'll use when performing in front of people

Reviews around beginner (4.46 of 5)

  • This is fairly good beginner ukulele, especially for the price
  • Spend a little more for a bit better quality, even for a novelty or beginner use
  • Maybe they're not all like this, but on the one I got, the difference between the open G string and the first fret was closer to a whole step than a half step, but in between
  • Bottom line, it's a good beginner's instrument, and could be even better with a few minor enhancements.
  • I am just a beginner hard to keep in

Reviews around quality (4.17 of 5)

  • The Okina had a poor sound quality even compared to my own 20- and 40-year-old ukuleles (which had the original strings).
  • I recommend getting new strings, however, because the original strings are cheap quality and untune easily
  • Sound is good but not top quality...... to be expected since the price was low
  • A string upgrade to Aquila strings helped significantly, but even then, the Okina still had a far worse sound quality at this price level
  • It's overall a great instrument and quality for the price

  • This cheap plastic toy is a great gift for a 5 year old, but besides that its not good for anything else.

Reviews around daughter (4.16 of 5)

  • I ordered this the beginning of January but my daughter was unable to begin lessons until February.
  • Great quality for the price, my daughter love her ukelele...
  • I bought this for my daughter as a cheap prop for an art project.
  • Maybe they're not all like this, but on the one I got, the difference between the open G string and the first fret was closer to a whole step than a half step, but in between
  • My daughter loves it, and the included strings are great for the abuse she doles out on it

Reviews around sound (4.14 of 5)

  • One string gave a dead buzzing sound even when it was supposedly tuned right.
  • The sound is pretty mediocre (even for a cheap instrument)
  • It has a great sound and is easy to tune also comes with a case, good deal for the price.
  • Two of the 4 gears make horrible grinding sound and the inside is de-laminating.
  • Other than that the uke has a great sound for it's so reasonable price

Reviews around tune (3.91 of 5)

  • It comes VERY untuned and doesn't hold a tune well at all, but that gets better the more you play it
  • First, also buy a Snark Tuner (or one like it), as it will lose a tune after about 20-30 minutes of playing.
  • Warped subtly enough that it's difficult to catch with the eye but very noticeable when tuning
  • Didn't come tuned (probably because it fell out of tune along the way it was shipped here lmao)
  • I am glad that I bought this one to learn on because it keeps its tune really well

Reviews around uke (3.86 of 5)

  • Its a good uke to learn how to play before spending the money to get a nicer one.
  • I bought this to play around with, but soon found out this is not really a good uke to play seriously with
  • I bought this ukulele for my 2-year-old son because he loves my (expensive) uke and always wants to play with it.
  • These are also good for bringing something around to jam with (when you don't want to carry around a more expensive uke)
  • It's a cool uke for kids, but I don't recommend it for anyone who really wants to learn how to play

Reviews around instrument (3.84 of 5)

  • Overall, it's not a bad investment if you want a cheap little instrument to experiment with.
  • Sure, it may not sound as good as a pricier instrument, but the price makes up for it
  • -1 because some of the frets are a little out of tune, but for a super cheap instrument, it's a great little guy!
  • The sound is pretty mediocre (even for a cheap instrument)
  • However the durability of it makes for a great instrument for the kids to play with.

Reviews around price (3.73 of 5)

  • this is amazing for the cheap price, it's a very good starter ukulele and since it is so cheap you won't worry too much if it's dropped or knocked around a bit.
  • Great for kids that have interest in music at a great price.
  • It has a great sound, and it's a wonderful gift at a great price
  • ok for the price, but not very well made/quality material.
  • Other than that the uke has a great sound for it's so reasonable price

Reviews around advertise (2.54 of 5)

  • Overall I like it and would recommend, as long as you don't pay more than $35, and don't mind some QC issues.
  • This is an example of false advertising - blatant false advertising

Reviews around string (2.33 of 5)

  • These strings were better but they kept falling out because the tuners are very cheap and poor quality
  • This uke looks nice for the price however the strings sound bad
  • The strings are strong and we still have all the originals on the instrument.
  • The sound quality seems fine, the strings are not that great
  • It has bad strings, bad sound quality, and it goes out of tune after every song

Reviews around plastic (1.69 of 5)

  • The cheap plastic strings that come with it must be changed, though
  • I can't stand those cheap plastic ukulele they sell to tourists in Hawaii.
  • However, I would recommend just tossing the cheap plastic case and invest in some new strings.
  • If that's the case can anyone recommend top quality plastic strings for it!
  • This cheap plastic toy is a great gift for a 5 year old, but besides that its not good for anything else.

Reviews around knob (1.69 of 5)

  • Was broken when I got it (the knobs to tune the uke were busted
  • The knobs seem a bit cheap, and I think that's part of why it goes out of tune so easily, but hopefully it'll break in
  • Something decent o learn off of but falls out of tune really fast
  • There was a newspaper INSIDE it, the knobs were all stiff and every string refused to stay tuned for more than 5 seconds

Reviews around paint (1.54 of 5)

  • The uke has a muddy finish that looks like cheap paint rather than a proper wood finish.
  • Overall I like it and would recommend, as long as you don't pay more than $35, and don't mind some QC issues.
  • The paint is a bit scratched in places especially on the
  • This thing worked for the first month but later the strings couldn't hold their tuning and the sides of the uke begin to crack from bad paint and temperature change.
