- KBKevin B.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars6 months agoNeat soprano but a flaw
The good:
- 15 frets! so you can play songs with more range (This is why I bought it.)
- wide nut, easy to finger chords
- sounds great for a soprano
- small and light
- some people have complained about the tuners but they're fine
The bad:
- the headstock is a heavy slotted bamboo block. It is quite heavy. One has to hold it up while playing,
which detracts from the fun of playing, and generally making some chords difficult.
- PMPatricia M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars11 months agoIt arrived well packaged.
A lovely addition to my Kala collection. I enjoy the bright sound and projection. Easy on the fingers at the fret board.
- AMAmanda M.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars11 months agoSounds good
I like the sound of this uke, though I think it may need different strings. Solid wood at a great price, and super pretty!
- JMJason M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoGreat sound
I started with the Makala shark, upgrade the the Kale waterman. Wanted a new uke, something not just for beginners and one that wasn't plastic. I have been very satisfied with this purchase. Has a great sound, keeps a good tune, and looks great

I enjoy sharing my bamboo ukulele with people, and bragging about it being sustainable.
