- GKGreg K.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 months agoLovely long-neck.
With its solid spruce to, this little uke punches way above its weight and would be amazing for double the cost. I find the soprano scale a little too small for the way I like to play, but the concert neck fixes that handily and I still get that soprano sound. I alternate between this uke and my Kala Bamboo tenor, which I also love. The two are very different--and that's good. It keeps things interesting for me.

Such a beautifully crafted instrument. Holds its tuning extremely well, and sounds beautiful. I am an intermediate beginner - this is my second instrument I’ve purchased. Now I can’t imagine playing on anything but this.
- CECesar E. Q.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoBest Soprano body/Concert neck Uke!
First of all, I'm shocked there are not more reviews about this instrument! This was my wife’s 9th Wedding Anniv. gift to me back in 3/21/2015. After researching Ukuleles, I told her this is the one I wanted (I desired a solid top, Soprano body w/a Concert neck). Best decision ever. This Uke is aesthetically gorgeous. Feels solid, sounds great, the binding is very pretty. I was even happier after I read that the back and sides were Mahogany (a true and tested excellent type of wood for Ukes and guitars!).
It’s a shame that it was discontinued, but you still can get it from some sellers on the net. I’m planning on installing a L.R. Baggs 5.0 pickup to turn it into an acoustic/electric. I highly recommend it. The only negative is not against the instrument but against the fact that KALA should have offered it w/a case specifically for its size (just like they offered it for the, also now discontinued, Kala KA-SSTU-S).
If Kala ever makes a Soprano body w/a Concert neck w/these same woods or even a Mahogany back & sides plus a Koa solid top, a Rosewood fingerboard and a Fishman KULA Ukulele pickup system…I’ll buy it immediately!!!...Hint! Hint! ;-)

It is built very solid, especially the neck the size and feels like a more expensive Uke. Sounds even better after changing to low G string. Stays in tune which most inexpensive Ukes you’d have to upgrade the tuners. Perfect to take around everywhere. I’d highly recommend this.
- HHaleyVerified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 years agoAmazing!!
I bought this ukulele secondhand to be the first instrument that I have ever learned how to play. That being said, I don’t know much about instruments or their intricacies quite yet. But what I can say is that this uke sounds better than my teacher’s and has been a dream to learn on. If you have the chance to pick this up DO IT.
