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
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 ukulele arrived in a gig bag with padding sufficient enough for carefully toting around or car rides

this instrument was pretty easy using a digital tuner, which is not included.
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 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.
However, digital tuners aren't terribly expensive ($15-$30, on average).

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
This is a beautifully crafted ukulele, nice stripped wood grain top.
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
I always like when the dark and light wood grains invert as you shift the item around
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.
Like most stringed instruments, it doesn't hold tuning very well out of the box, but as the strings and wood stretched out and relaxed, the tuning became steadier.
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 is appealing to the eye, lightweight, tunes easy and plays beautifully!
The strings are easy to play and the instrument stays in tune well
