By G. Houston
This was the first musical instrument I have purchased and started seriously practicing on. I have had it for just over a month, and it's just now that I am getting comfortable with the instrument that it's rattling has started to really bug me. The battery pack in the tuner rattles. The battery pack rattle is particularly accentuated when playing the first fret on the C string. Also there is a different rattle (after removing the battery pack) when playing the open C string or the first fret on the E string. The further down the fret board you play and the further behind the sound board you finger pick the less rattling the instrument makes, but as a beginner most all the chords with open strings cause my uke to rattle.Otherwise it's pretty. It sounds good. The tuner works. I like that I can plug it directly into my digital audio converter and record to my computer without having to mic it. I could live without the cheapo EQ controls. I sort of wish it came with a bottom strap pin, and that the output jack was a little higher. Where the output jack is now, the guitar cable gets in the way where I rest the instrument on my leg when sitting.If it didn't rattle I would probably give it 4 stars, subtracting one star just because it isn't made of solid wood, but veneer instead. The rattling is almost bad enough for me to give it only 2 stars, but I'll give it a 3 and we can call it 2 and half.

By arizona alf
I have only praise for this instrument.The quality of the sound and projection are unbeleivably superb. The electronics work very well also, nice clean sound. I was looking for a uke to double on gigs and this kala more than fits the bill. The workmanship also appears to be top notch. The action is low which makes it very easy to play,needs no set up. Very,very satiefied.

By Krukster
This ukulele looks and sounds great.The built-in eq and tuner makes tuning up a breeze! You just click the little button and it turns on the tuner. Pluck a string, and it will tell you if it's high or low. Adjust the string until the middle green light lights up, and that string is tuned. Simple! When done, hit the button again and it will turn off the tuner - don't waste batteries if you don't have to.I haven't plugged in the uke yet to try the input jack or EQ, but plan on doing so soon. The uke sounds great acoustic. The flame mahogany top is actually a laminate, but the tone of this uke is fantastic.
