    Hamano U-30BU Colorful Soprano Ukulele - Blue

    • Wood attached to the strings broke on the first day of gentle use
    • Also at first (as I expected), the Ukelele went badly out of tune quickly when playing, but after a few hours the strings broke in and now keep their tuning with only occasional minor tweaks required
    • One of the strings broke right away, but he was hitting it with a toy hammer, so it was definitely his fault
    • It took a few days to get the strings broken
    • One of the strings broke in shiping also :(Im having bad luck on amazon lately
    • It took a few days to get the strings broken
    • One of the gears on the back that turns when you tighten the strings broke completely on the first day of trying to tune it, definite bummer
    • The sound is pretty clear and loud, and you can get a clean sounding chord if you practice enough (although I can never seem to get a clear G for some reason)
    • The strings are high-quality as I said, but I might restring it with something lighter like Martin polycarbonate because right now the Aquila Super Nylgut (and the Aquila Red series low-G that I put in) feel like overkill on this instrument
    • He and his brother downloaded an app to learn as well as from youtube.
    • It has a really quiet almost harp-like mellow Hawaiian sound
    • We bought this for our 4 year old daughter as she loves to make music
    • i had an orange mahalo that seemed a bit better in quality and sound, I sold it to a coworker for her grandson and bought a white one, i miss my orange one, this is still great just seems to lose key a
    • Strings could be better, but it's to be expected that the stock strings wouldn't sound as good as for example the Aquila strings.
    • The uke has good sound quality for the price and works as it should.
    • bought this for my toddlers and they like to play with it, not sure I'd recommend for a player as it doesn't hold tune for long, if you want to play you should spend a little more on a quality instrument
    • Was really bummed as I was looking forward to altering it with some quilted fabric to give it some substance and padding as apparently it is just thin nylon.
