Thank you so much for this excelent review! It was crucial in my decision to purchase the non-electric version of this instrument… and I am incredibly happy! It is such a wonderful little uke at such a brilliant price. Your images were definately a selling point for me. (MY personal ukulele is even prettier then yours, I’m afraid!)

Thank you so much for this wonderful review.

The strings are Ko’olau Golds. I’ve heard that Ko’olau strings can have intonation problems, but I must have gotten a good set as mine are fine. You can hear how the uke and strings sound by clicking on the sound bite link towards the end of the review.

Great looking uke. I’m sure it sounds great. Really quick, what strings do you have strung on that four-string beast?

Excellent! If you do build a uke, you’ll have to let us know how it turns out

It was fabulous! Got to meet and visit with Sam Rosen at the Ukulele Gallery and also got to meet and visit with KonaBob. The gf was actually so impressed with KonaBob’s Walking Bass and demo that she bought one! Also went to the jam session at the Ukulele Gallery and got to see some really good and talented players. Sam was a great help in providing me with some resources for building my own uke, which was very cool!
