  • The Kala works for me
I was seeking a highly rated, solid wood ukulele to play for my personal amusement, looking to pay as little as possible in the solid wood category of instruments. I already had an inexpensive, laminated uke that would not hold a tuning for more than a few minutes, but I found my wife was still enjoying my playing. Go figure. It inspired me to move up. Be warned, I am not in any way a professional musician, but I appreciate and value quality in my possessions. I did a lot of research and read a lot of reviews. The Kala-SMHC had good ratings and had the high quality strings that would assure me of a ukulele that I would not have to fiddle with to keep in tune. The price was competitive in the class of instruments reviewed. I placed an order on Amazon and received my Kala in short order. It was well packaged. The build quality is very good. I am a professional maker of things, from wood, metals and plastics, and am known for my anal retentive tendencies. I do not give accolades lightly. I like to critique things. The satin finish does not show finger prints and is well applied. The tuning spindles are very nice to use and of good quality. This is not a super showy instrument, but it has nice border inlay details at the edges of the body, top and bottom. The ebony fret board and bridge are flawless. The manufacturer's name is tastefully small and well inlaid, not applied, KALA. This instrument should last to be an heirloom, if only I had an heir. The only thing that disappoints me about the instrument is that the mahogany used to make mine is a mousy brown, instead of the rich, mahogany red that I am accustomed to. I have worked with a lot of mahogany in my lifetime. Rest assured, it is real mahogany, but not the color hoped for. The promotional photographs show instruments with the rich, mahogany red color I desired and expected. I understand that every tree is different. For that reason, I accept the color as the luck of the draw. Someone was bound to get the mousy brown mahogany, and it was me. I wouldn't see a tree wasted. All the parts of the instrument appear to be from the same tree and are well matched; neck, panels and sides. I don't believe I am qualified to evaluate tonal quality, brightness, etc., but the instrument sounds fine with my voice and we make music together. The bridge is well fitted so that even these unskilled fingers can effortlessly make chords and strum away with a minimal amount of buzzing and clunking. For this, I am pleased and grateful. All in all, I am perfectly happy with my KA-SMHC. I also purchased an electronic, Snark tuner and a quality hard case on Amazon. The tuner is amazing, as it does its job so well, for so little cost. I got the tuner that will work with all instruments, instead of just the uke specific one; for an extra $3, why not? I can use it to tune my guitar and any other instrument set before me. ... show more

  • Pleased with the Kala
I was debating between a Córdoba solid spruce concert and this Kala solid mahogany concert for 3-4 months. I think I made the right decision, and her teacher agreed. This will be my daughter's first upgrade from a laminate starter. The tone is rich and full, it played loud and clear to a crowd of 200 people. The strings are comfortable and really nice to strum, according to her and her tiny fingers. It is simply a beautiful instrument with the elegance of the side-trim design. It was about $40-50 more than comparable ukuleles with similar make and size of other brands. ... show more

  • Can't Put It Down
This Ukulele is as fine a piece of work as I have ever seen. The sound after only two weeks has already matured due to the solid wood construction. It is well built and feels like it was made to be played everyday. I hardly even pick up my solid spruce top tenor because this instrument sounds so good...intonation fret by fret is spot on as well. It is feather lite as well. ... show more

  • Great Ukulele
Was delivered well packaged - even with little surprise goodies like stickers and a medium pick from CME. Uke is beautiful and was ready to play out of the box. Action on the neck and strings was already good enough for me. There were some nicks on the neck close to the body, which could be from the manufacturing. Really glad I invested in an all solid uke - this is my first uke (although I play a Martin guitar) and hope to keep this instrument for the long run. ... show more
