- KDKenton D.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars11 months agoOverall, I like it.
Good size for travel in my 5th wheel RV. Sounds very good. Playability isn't as good as I had hoped. I need to pull the bridge and sand the bottom to lower the action. Stays in tune well. I 'm a big guy with big fingers so the strings are a bit close together for me. Quality is very good.
- GSGabriel S.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoIt's a great guitar
It is a magnificent guitar, with an exceptional and very beautiful sound.
- EEricSVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoThis is a wonderful guitar!
The sound is well balanced, it's nice played hard and soft, chords and melodic lines.
I really like the size, shape, and the relatively low volume. Very nice craftsmanship; great for the money.
Altogether, IMHO, much nicer than the (more expensive) Baby Taylor or Martin LX1.
I just bought a second one for my 20-something son, who fell in love with it on first try (he already has a Baby Taylor).

I love the small body size, like a baritone ukulele, except six strings! And steel strings! Very hard to find a well built instrument of this type and Kala has done a wonderful job! Excellent tone all the way up the neck, super fun to play and so comfortable relax with.
