Kala, 4-String Ukulele, Right, Natural, Tenor (KA-EBY-T : KAEBYT2006)

I bought this uke after coming back from Hawaii. Hearing it at every restaurant and shop made me crave its sweet sound.I play guitar, so I knew I loved the sound of ebony wood, and the look of this ukulele was just beautiful. The sound is quite bright, and very snappy. It's a well built ukulele, so fears of buying a cheap instrument should not worry you.Tenors are a good size for someone with big hands like me. They offer a full sound, with that classic ukulele vibe, at a size that is very playable, especially if you have experience playing guitar or other stringed instruments.The only complaint I have is that for some reason, the uke I was shipped did not have the abalone rosette around the sound hole it was supposed to have, but it's only a minor flaw, and its absence would not be noticed if you were not expecting it to be there.Kala is a good, consistent brand. If you want a great sounding mid-range ukulele, you will not go wrong with this one.

Worts great and comes with good strings. No damage and has a wonderful finish. Would like for it to come with Some sort of case but good nontheless.

The Kala Ebony is breathtaking. I'd been playing for two years on a decent, but starter ukulele (the Hola deluxe, which I recommend for beginners), and wow. This was an upgrade. The sound is warm, but loud, the action is perfect, there is no fret buzzing. This is, of course, a tenor, which offers more frets for fingerstyle and jazz chords. This is more taxing on your hands if you have medium to small hands. If you fall into either of those categories, I'd start out with a soprano to make learning the fingering much easier. If you have very large, thick hands, this is the one for you. I'm a fairly advanced player, and my fingers do tire playing this. But boy, the sound is worth it. And the look of it. It is a little bit brighter than the picture, and more dynamic than just dark. It's gorgeous. Overall, I highly recommend.

This is my second ukelele and definitely many steps up from my first. Handles well. Absolutely beautiful. And it has a much warmer tone than my soprano one, which is as expected. Started holding its tune well after just a couple hours of play.

This is the third kala ukulele I've purchased and the idea that one kala ukulele is vastly superior over an other might be a stretch. I'm happy with the fit and finish of this ukulele.

Well packaged and arrived safely with no damage. This is a full sounding ukelele, and it came fairly well set up as far as string height goes. It's decently loud as far as ukeleles go and has a very natural sound to it, especially considering it's a laminate build and not solid wood. That said, it's much less temperamental when it comes to humidity than the solid wood ones. I switched to Aquila Super Nylgut strings and they were a big improvement over the Aquila NEW Nylgut strings that came with it.

Beyond the amazing visual presentation of natural wood and colors that just flow perfectly, the sound is amazingly bright with a big punch that is earthy and natural. The whole neck plays with ease. It was either perfect out of the factory or very well set up by the seller. Zero buzzes and the action is nice and low. I have many custom Ukuleles made of Koa from the best of the Hawaiian makers and this Ukulele sees more action than those for 3 reasons. The sound is natural, the Ebony looks amazing and I can take it anywhere without worrying about damaging something that will cost me 2 grand to replace.

This ukelele has good sound. Much better than the cheap uke you get at a General Merchandising Store which has a cheap sound.The only thing I dislike was, it was a little pricey. However, this is designed for intermediate to advanced ukulele players.

This is great sounding ukulele for its price range. Looks fantastic definitely stands out in a crowd.Feels nicely madeMy daughter says it is staying tuned well, works well with her capo.I definitely recommend this

音の響きがまろやかで好きです。購入時の弦はアクィーラのナイルガットのでいいのですが、ちょっと自分の好みよりも元気すぎるイキイキとした音に感じるので、自分好みの弦に張り替えて落ち着いた音色になり満足しています。ストライプ少なめの好みの柄で良かったです。気に入らない点は、最初からエンドピンが付いていた点。エンドピンは好みで自分で付ければいいと思う。あとは、ギアペグがやたらとギシギシ軋み音がして壊れるんじゃないかと思うぐらい。ギアペグに機械油をさしてもいいのかな？

Suena muy bien y es muy cómodo de tocar. Pesa poco y la madera es una pasada. Es precioso, me encanta.

ウクレレを演奏するのが好きな子供のクリスマスプレゼントとして購入しました。普通のソプラノは持っていて、今回はコンサートが欲しいと言われたのでこちらのエボニーボディーのものを選びました。　音もいいし、色も模様も今までのものとは違ってカッコいいと気に入ってくれたようです。

2個目のウクレレです。音が大きくて、柔らかい音がいいなと思い、コンサートウクレレで探していました。マホガニーやハワイアンコアにしようか迷っていました。ネットで音を聴き比べて最終的にこのエボニーのウクレレにしました。結果、大正解。ほかのものと直接比較したわけではないですが、音がきれいです。温かみのある音で、ついつい弾きたくなります。弦高もちょうどよく、弾きやすいです。おすすめです。【2018.3.6追記】使用して1年程度。2弦の1フレットを抑えて引くと、音の伸びが悪い。フレット音痴っていうんですかね？AU-1などより音の響きはいいですが、しっかり音が鳴らないのに残念。やっぱり国産で高いやつがいいのかな？フレット音痴ではソロウクレレには向かないですね。
