I've played ukulele for over a decade now and have used it as such a great writing tool. I've always like to bring it out for solo performances for a few songs. Kala and Lanakai are the two brands Ive always gravitated towards. All my previous ukes have electronics and sound great live but I noticed when trying to record them in the studio with sensitive mics certain notes sometimes would buzz and rattle wires/ electronics or the intonation wasn't always great past the 5th or 6th frett. I guess most of the ukes I bought were 350 dollars or less with electronics. This particular Kala with no electronics was the perfect addition to my uke collection and was exactly what I wanted and needed for recording in studio. Ive already used it record 3 songs. I really like the headstock on this mahogany tenor uke too along with the beveled edge where you're arm rests! The neck is a little thicker than I expected but I think that is part of the solid sound to this awesome instrument produces. I'd recommend to anyone looking to upgrade their game on recording ukulele or that just want to upgrade from a starter uke.
