made in China.

UTILIZATION

The neck is very pleasant although the access to the upper frets isn't easy considering the space between the frets but that's quite normal with every soprano ukulele. It tilts a bit at the head but I found the same problem with every ukulele I've played.
Standard body shape, good finish for a low-budget ukulele.

SOUNDS

When it comes to the sound, it's a ukulele... so it has only one sound. It's perfect to add an exotic feeling to a song but don't expect to play long tapping solos with it...

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using it for 6 months and it has become a very good musical partner. I already tested other ukuleles including Harley Benton (yuk!), Gewa (hmmm...), Tennesee (not bad), and this one, which seems to be made to last. Pleasant to play, good tuning stability, good sound. This ukulele fits wonderfully its purpose as a "fun" instrument.
Of course you'll find some models 2 or 3 times cheaper but their manufacturing quality isn't good (the neck comes off, bad fret work, bad tuning stability).
I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again although I'm thinking about buying a tenor ukulele (better playability).
