Great instrument
This is my first ukulele and it’s been a joy to play. I was expecting to have to tune it more frequently than I have been which is nice. I can whole heartedly recommend this for beginners.
The Makala Classic line is simply the best entry-level ukulele on the market. Sound and playability usually suffer when offered at these affordable prices, but not with the Makala. With a fantastic sound and vintage look, the Makala Classic line won’t break the bank.

I think this is an easy to play ukulele. It came set up very well and looks great. It is exactly what I was hoping for.
I love this mahogany ukulele. It has a beautiful sound, with and without an amp. It's amazing.
bery good and worth it
I played a number of ukuleles at a music store in California, almost all Kala ukes, and this one was the last one I played and the only one that truly stood out among the crowd, sounding more clear and resonant than even models two or three times more expensive. I was visiting from out of state, but I ordered one right away from Kala's website.
Since I received it, I've been playing it almost constantly. It sounds so lovely and resonant, so full in body and easy to project, even without any electric amplification. I'm thrilled with the quality, the value, and the service.
