Pros & Cons
Pros
Overall, it is very attractive. The high gloss finish is beautiful as well. On inspection it appears in excellent condition.
This is my second uke - my other is a more expensive tenor. I like the tenor size and find that it gives more of the standard ukulele sound. The back of the uke is slightly curved out, pleasant surprise. I am not a novice player and this uke is my ten... Read More
The body is a nice zebrawood laminate that has a slight bow on the back. The truss rod seems to work. It is much easier to play than a six string guitar, as you only have to worry about four strings, bur the chords are the same.
The built-in tuner works well. Tuner pegs work well and it holds it's tuning well. The tuners are closed chrome -- not cheap, but also not expensive.
This ukulele sounds like it should cost double and you won't regret buying it. Good price considering it comes with electrical pickup. Pickup is decent!
Cons
The action is insanely high, and it cannot be lowered enough to make this really playable. The neck is set too low relative to the saddle. This is not worth the money.
Highlights
Quality
Very high quality sound i play both electric and acoustic
Nicely made feels good to play a real musical instrument not a toy
Pins broke when removed to change strings
The nut slots are cut too deeply and the b string buzzes at the first fret as a result
Price
I must say that for the price this is a really great instrument
This is an insane price for a decent instrument
Nobody can touch this for under 300 i promise
Finding an electricacoustic baritone ukulele for under 100 that actually sounds nice is very difficult nearly impossible
Shipping
I received the uke in three weeks and it was well packaged
Customer service at caramel via email was very friendly and responded promptly as i contacted them with several questions prior to buying
It took 17 days from order to receipt and was shipped directly from china via china express to usps
It took 10 working days for the shipment to come from china
Packaging/appearance
Came with the nylon aquila strings big thumbsup
I gave it 4 stars because it arrived with a broken string peg
My only complaint really is that the packaging for shipping was not very good
As others have noted the outer packing box was a little beat up
Competitiveness
The quality far exceeded my expectations and i found it to be better than my other baritone which cost more than four times the... Read More
I recently changed the strings to martins which i like better than the stock
Baritone ukes sound better than the others
So i did some research and found the baritone ukelele is tuned just like the bottom four strings of a regular guitar and is als... Read More
