The uke looks like a custom uke costing 10 times as much, and the case is better quality than most soft cases for other stringed instruments.

I ordered this uke directly through their web site, plus the UC3 hard case and a Korg tuner, on Thanksgiving weekend and it arrived the following Friday

I also bought a Oscar Schmidt hard case

This is an extraordinary case- 5 stars +, I'd never get anything different.

I bought the Oscar Schmidt hard case for

Get the battery operated little tuner...you'll be glad you did, and the nice carrying case (I bought Oscar Sxhmidt's hardshell uke case)

The uke came with an Oscar Schmidt hard case and was in perfect condition.

With the Oscar Schmidt hard case, I couldn't ask for anything more for the money.

I don't have a hard case for this, but after some use, the pearl-esque inlay on the side neck of the fret started splintering off.

Other than the lack of a hard case as advertised, I am pleased with my purchase.

It was advertised and said the purchase included a hard case for the instrument

Maybe not as good as the $300 koa I swoon over at the music store, but really clear and excellent and every note sounds like it should !
