Reviews around sound (5.00 of 5)

  • The sound that comes out of the instrument is also very nice
  • Very quick shipping process, beautiful sound and quality.
  • The sound is amazing for a ukulele in this price range, good sustain, comparable to my solid acacia ukulele.
  • The U100CM is a fairly nice looking instrument and the sound is good for the most part, but the one we received has a few obvious issues.1
  • The sound is really good and it is fun and rewarding to learn.

Reviews around bag (5.00 of 5)

  • It also came with a better padded bag and a nice little tuner and strap (and the ukulele has a bottom strap anchor already installed).
  • The bag will basically only protect it from dust - not the most useful case, but it works for my purposes
  • The kit comes with a owner's manual and guide that includes a few chords and two songs (Imagine and Somewhere Over the Rainbow).There is a nice padded black nylon gig bag with a small exterior zippered compartment to place spare strings and a nylon carrying handle
  • The ukulele arrived in a gig bag with padding sufficient enough for carefully toting around or car rides

Reviews around tuner (5.00 of 5)

  • The tuning pegs are geared and easy to turn—unlike the fussy 1960s Martin friction tuners on a Koa soprano uke we used for comparison—and the tuners feel smooth and positive.
  • It also came with a better padded bag and a nice little tuner and strap (and the ukulele has a bottom strap anchor already installed).
  • this instrument was pretty easy using a digital tuner, which is not included.
  • However, digital tuners aren't terribly expensive ($15-$30, on average).

Reviews around price (4.49 of 5)

Reviews around wood (4.16 of 5)

  • Great uke, I got it on sale, but would be worth it even for $100+!• Great sound, comparable to more expensive ukes• Beautiful top layer, nice wood grain pattern• Sturdy construction (laminate)• Much better than "toy grade" ukuleles
  • I always like when the dark and light wood grains invert as you shift the item around
  • The wood is solid, and I'm not afraid of warping or cracking it during normal use
  • The mahogany wood is beautiful, and it is easily playable right out of the box once it is tuned
  • This is a beautifully crafted ukulele, nice stripped wood grain top.

Reviews around tune (4.16 of 5)

  • I would recommend that you get this tuner, Korg PITCHCLIP Low-Profile Clip-on Tuner since the ukulele comes not tuned (strings are loose about 1 or 2 notes below correct tuning.
  • The strings are easy to play and the instrument stays in tune well
  • For some reason, I couldn't get my guitar tuner to work with it, so I ended up finding an online ukulele tuning site that worked to perfection
  • It does lose its tuning every now and again, but isn't nearly as loose as other ukes around the same price.
  • It is appealing to the eye, lightweight, tunes easy and plays beautifully!

Reviews around case (3.86 of 5)

  • It comes with a nice case (not too much padding but that's to be expected for such a low price), and it has a wonderful sound and look
  • This is nothing more than a dust bag, so if you want to carry your ukulele around, you will need a better-quality, nicely padded or hard-case bag.
  • One day I'll get a more protective case if I want to travel with good old Usnavi (the name of my uke
  • The bag will basically only protect it from dust - not the most useful case, but it works for my purposes
