## Customer Reviews

### ⭐ This Beauty is a Beast
*by C***K on January 19, 2013*

I was very disappointed with the sound and set up of this ukulele. The bridge is poorly set up, the strings buzz all the time and do not seat well on the bridge--the nickel wound ones chink up, creating an even more pronounced buzzing sound. This instrument is over priced and not very much fun to play, yet quite aesthetic. In addition, I have no complaints about the electronics. The pickup seems to be in good order. The headstock and tuning pins are also well made, unfortunately this is a waste of good craftsmanship, given the bridge it is attached to.I am a music teacher and would not recommend this brand for purchase by any of our parents.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My first Bari and I would not sell it for Anything!
*by S***R on December 17, 2013*

I am a BIG fan of this instrument. I have played it for 2 years now and it seems to get better as the instrument ages and becomes more "seasoned." I bought it in November of 2011 and immediately changed the strings to Aquila mainly because of reviews here on Amazon. The first time I played it with the original strings I almost returned it immediately. Instead I replaced the strings and It sounded like a totally different instrument. The bottom notes are clear and very rich, while the B and E strings have that distinctive Uke sound. When I first changed strings I lowered the action a bit. Next string change I may lower it a bit more. It is true that when you buy from Amazon, they do not "Set-Up" the instrument for you. Most Music Stores that sell Guitars and such will do the set up for you if you are not comfortable doing it yourself. But call around to several stores BEFORE you purchase the instrument and find out the cost for this service. MOST stores set up their own instruments for free so factor that into your buying decision. There are several You-Tube videos that will show you the procedure.. Just be careful not to adjust it TOO LOW or you will get buzzing and other nasty sounds.The When I play it my wife (who is also a musician) always comments how great the sound is from this instrument. Plug this little beauty into an Amplifier and it is truly amazing!.Aesthetically it is a very beautiful. The Shine is easy to maintain and it looks like I'm playing a $500.00+ instrument.

### ⭐⭐ Oscar Schmidt OU55CE Baritone Acoustic Electric Ukulele
*by V***L on May 1, 2010*

I actually returned the ukulele. I believe a good electric uke should sound good plugged in or not. This one did not have great sound when I just wanted to pick it up and play without plugging it into the amp. It's a pretty ukulele, but no substance.
