    • Fun musical craft item at a great price!
I bought one of these as a test to see if it might be a good family craft idea to share with my two pre-teen grandkids. It definitely passes the "let's do this" test. The kit includes everything you will need except for sandpaper and whatever finishing coat you desire. I'll be using a good-quality wood stain on my prototype, but if the kids prefer paint I'll support their wishes. I like the fact that much of the construction is already complete. I only gave the "for beginners" category three stars because the best results will require some understanding of woodworking and/or the basic functioning of stringed instruments. I'm sure my grandkids will do fine with on this with some helpful supervision. One critical observation: the strings that come with the kit are of low quality. For another $5 or so, you can order top quality ukulele strings from Amazon. I look forward to some quality time, creating instruments and music with the grands this summer! ... show more

    • Disappointing, due to ...
I am experienced with hand tools, wood working and finishing, and as a guitar player am familiar with the design principles of plucked instruments. I expected this kit, with the most challenging part of the build (body assembly) already done, to be relatively simple to complete. Well, it was and it wasn't. Here are a few things that led to issues with the assembly, and a disappointing finished product: (1) the supplied glue was partially cured and so was worthless, but in any event, PVA isn't good for gluing plastic to wood; (2) The peg holes in the head thru which the tuning machines are inserted are oversized, so the machines fit poorly; (3) the quality and appearance (grain) of the wood is not suited to being clear varnished; (4) the precision of the drilled holes for the mating, via the included dowel, as well as the machining of the neck surface to be joined to the body, are poor resulting in a problematic neck angle, leading to an excessively high action; (5) the supplied nut is molded plastic with string grooves that are much too high given the very shallow profile of the frets; (6) some, but not all, of the frets were tarnished, giving the fretboard an unattractive "used" appearance. The 4-year old to whom I gave the finished instrument doesn't care about any of this. But I'm convinced that if more care had been taken in the creation of the parts going into the kit, that it would have been easier to put together, and the final result would have been more functional and better looking. Given that already finished, decent quality instruments can be had for an additional $50 to $60, I rather wish I'd saved my labor time and effort for other, more satisfying projects. ... show more

    • Eh. Meh. Arrghh. Doh.
For the adventurist crafts person. Not for a wannabe uke player. The instructions are lacking in all the fundamental set up needed to be playable. After hours of meticulous assembly and painting I discovered that the strings were at 8 to 10 millimeters above the fretboard which seemed like an excessive amount. After some googling I found out the strings should be around 1.5-2mm at the nut and 2.5-3mm at the 12th fret. My only solution was to saw the neck from the body and taper the area of attachment and re-glue, and then file down the nut and saddle. Now it is somewhat playable after I also bought better strings and some other necessities which a beginner will need. Mine actually arrived without most of the damage others are mentioning. If it had simply included the finer points of assembly I would give it 5 stars. ... show more

These ukulele kits are fun to decorate and easy to assemble. Strings are not labeled, so that was my biggest challenge. Once I brought my other uke and tuner into the workshop, it was a bit easier to figure out. I used both Sharpie markers and stains to finish them.

    • Fun project, quality was lacking even for 20 bucks
Fun project to build with my 4yrold, the neck was difficult to line up with the body due to how it was cut uneven and the alignment hole was off. I had to make a spacer for the bridge to get working. Otherwise quality was fine for 20 bucks.

    • Take you time
If one takes their time and spends a little "attention to detail" on the build it will turn out fine. I would suggest though that strings, other than those supplied, be acquired
