I purchased this Ukulele as a gift due in part to the striking beauty of the advertised image. The actual instrument, however, did not feature the same two tone wood grain pattern. Rather, it was solid brown in front and back, and failed to include the contrasting lighter wood grain. If I wanted a solid dark wood grain instrument, I would have searched for one. Instrument aesthetics play into the purchase decision as much as sound quality, playability, tuneability, construction, durability, brand reputation, warranty and more. It's a nice, quality instrument and combo for the price point, but I'm pretty disappointed that the actual appearance (similar to the image shown in this review) is nowhere near the advertised image or what I thought I was buying (regardless of what small print disclaimers might say about differences in appearance).

This uke is perfect! I love it. Sounds very good and it’s beautiful. I ordered with the hard case and it worths every single dollar.

I have been playing ukulele for only two years. I felt ready for a upgrade. This ukulele does not disappoint. It is a beautiful ukulele and playing it is a joy. It stays tuned and the sound only improves with time. I wanted to learn finger picking and this ukulele was highly recommended. Kala makes a quality product and Austin Bazaar bundled a quality hard case. I received it on time during a time when delivery has been difficult.

Ansolutely beautiful with the ziricote and honey sap stripe! I ordered with the kit and hard size case. The case is worth it to me and is normally sold separately. Hard sided, ample pocket and a good sized internal pic and accessories compartment. Well lined. Great customer service from Austin Bazaar. One suggestion instead of the CD a link to online resources would be better for me.Tuner comes with and, as a novice at tuning, found it intuitive. Now if I can learn to play as beautifully as it looks!

I'm fairly new to ukulele and this is my second uke purchase. The Kala reputation was what helped make my decision and the beauty of this uke sealed the deal. Sounds as good as it looks for a uke in this price range - and the seller was spot on with delivery and follow up

I thought I’d take up ukulele at age 64. I taught myself when I was a kid; so I thought I’d give it a shot as a young-at-heart senior. But this time I wanted a lovely instrument; and this definitely fits the bill. It sounds great, feels good, and makes me happy! Do not hesitate to buy this this great package. I did some research first, and this is a wonderful uke! Great value for money, too!

Wow....what a beautiful instrument! Sounds great. Comes strung with Aquila Nylgut strings. I already have a Kala baritone ukulele and love playing it, but so many tutorials on YouTube are tuned to GCEA, thus my venture into the tenor world. Seller is great...arrived in perfect condition and actually earlier than expected!
