I have a number of ukuleles, at many price levels, sizes and brands. For the sheer fun of it, I ordered the gloss mahogany 8-string tenor with electronics. The beauty, tone, playability is beyond the fun I anticipated. My small quibble is the built in tuner which is not accurate enough with this difficult to tune instrument. But, once tuned, the delightful fullness of chords accompanying vocals is spectacular! An entire new sound for my playing.

Love the tone! Definitely rounds out a room of instruments. My 2nd 8 string. Happy with the uke!

I now have 16 ukuleles. 9 of them are Kala. This new 8 String Tenor Ukulele w/EQ has a most magnificent and unique sound! The Gloss Mahogany construction and finish is absolutely beautiful! My favorite ukulele to just pick up and play. Tuning is much easier than the reviews I’ve read. It was boxed perfectly and arrived safely. A great addition to my collection!!! Thank you for the email that introduced me to the 8 String Tenor.

I really like this ukulele, sounds great. Not impressed that it cost about $200 more than if I bought it elsewhere. Would be nice to have a second button for the strap

Strikingly beautiful ukulele with mirror gloss finish and beautiful tuners. This was my first 8-string but it was easy to play and was a big hit. Tuning it isn't that bad, don't listen to the nightmare stories. The C-strings get out of tune quickly but I've only had it for a week so it may not have settled down yet. Had a built in tuner which gets a little getting used to and decent electronics.
