Nothing to add to other opinions. The construction and finish are great at this price level.
My only complaint about the finish at the fret: it slightly above the handle.

UTILIZATION

The handle is actually enjoyable and access is limited acute (shape and narrow fret: it's not a fault, this is the type of instrument).
The tuning is good.
The ergonomics are great: they do not hesitate to bring the Guitalele and play it everywhere (slumped on a sofa, bed, car (just off!), Etc. ...). Restriction: Do not play in the shower.
The sound is really nice guitar and ukulele between (a weird ...), amazing projection for the size of the fund.
Also we do not kill your fingers the chords.

SOUNDS

To the extent that I am a beginner, I try to hit a little to all styles as and when my progress and to the point where I am now (sadly not far off, but patience!), The sounds are super compared to what I'm trying to play both the fingers that pick.

OVERALL OPINION

I spotted the Guitalele Internet and past the window of a music store Toulouse, surprise: there was one! For € 70 with the cover, it's a deal!

It's been a week since I have and I never let go. I was looking for a small portable instrument to play anywhere and anytime: it perfectly fulfills its mission.
Now I wait almost impatiently cuts pub when I watch TV and the MIDI break at work has become Guitalele a break!

Only problems I can report:

- Certain agreements, such as La, are difficult to place because of the narrowness of the boxes.

- Some discomfort inside the right front just repossi on the corner of the box (it chews a little at a time). We need to find a comfortable position to avoid this.

An instument to counsel and that makes you want to feel the nylon (the ropes course, not down. It is still not an aphrodisiac, though ...)
