GK
Intonation on higher frets is terrible!
Grey Karma 05.02.2019
Use: I bought this as a cheap extra tenor uke.
Clarity: The body provides a good clear sound with plenty of volume when played acoustically. It has a bright rather than fat sound which I am ok with as it is a budget instrument. What I'm not ok with is an instrument that sounds so out of tune on the higher frets that I can't bare to play it any more.
Pros & Cons: This is a good instrument in terms of the price as it has a pickup with built in tuner. Personally, I wouldn't have any use for such a basic tuner (buy yourself a good clip on tuner instead) and would prefer if more attention was given to the intonation & fret placement as well as the action of the strings which is a little on the high side for comfortable strumming. This wood finish is really nice and feels very natural and much better than the finish on my over priced Luna High Tide which I will be reviewing soon!
Conclusion: If you are a beginner then this instrument is suitable in terms of budget, body size and the ability to plug it in to an amp or record yourself. I bought a Ritter padded gig bag for ¤29 to go with it. This case is excellent!
If the string action and intonation problems were addressed on this instrument then I would like to try out the upgraded version even if that meant a price increase.
