Kala KA-15S Mahogany Soprano Ukulele

Points to be noted while buying musical instruments online- Be extra sure about the seller. Read their reviews. See if returns are accepted. About the product. No eqs, no outs, no bag attached. Just plain original size soprano ukulele. Best ukulele for the budget. Sweet original sound. Good quality wood (mahagony which is best for indian climate). Really good quality strings (nylgut).

Thanks to amazon for being such amazing seller, they refunded my entire amount because I had received this product in damaged condition. Nonetheless this broken ukulele plays good sound, but alas may be not for long because the damage to soundboard is big and nasty and I can see the multiple crack widening at great speed. But I can comment at the build and say that its authentic quality.

The best thing about the Kala KA-15S Mahogany soprano ukulele is that doesn't get out of tune easily. Intonation is nice, produces a sweet and mellow sound when fitted with Aquila Nylgut strings. This one came prefitted (And I'm glad it did.) But why buy a ukulele that is priced at INR 8000 when there are a lot more cheaper options? Well, try them and the difference is quite evident. This ukulele is for those who are serious learners but want to invest in some quality product. If you are a guitar player, you'd probably think that the sound is not "whole" OR "FULL" enough, but trust me, that's how it is supposed to sound. The rosewood fretboard is sturdy, which is nice. Haven't tried using a felt plectrum with it yet. Will update this review once I do.

I recently bought this ukulele for myself. I have been searching one for a while but didn't know which one to buy or where to buy from. After buying it from Amazon, I am quite satisfied with this uke's packaging and delivery and would definitely recommend buying it. It's light-weight and the mahogany finish is just perfect. Plus the strings are Aquila which are said to be one of the finest. Although tuning the strings can be a bit cumbersome as they need to be tuned from time to time whenever used. Overall the quality is wonderful.

It's absolutely good for beginners. It's light and ofc it's Mahogay wood! You just have to tune before playing the Ukulele.

I have always been skeptical about buying musical instruments online but I don't regret buying this ukulele one bit. It's perfect. The strings will take about a week to hold the tuning and you'll have to tune it again and again. But otherwise, it sounds really good.

Got this as a gift from my parents. The product is of great quality as the manufacturer is highly rated. Amazon did a terrific job at packaging the ukulele, as it is fragile. This ukulele can help you learn the basics and provide the motivation to learn more! Highly recommend.

The Ukulele is premium and good... Plus it comes with Kala android App to learn it...Sound and build quality is nice... Hope you enjoy the product... Sound and strings are good

I'm gonna say it straight up before I give this review, I love it. I've played many guitars before but this was my first Ukelele. I adore the sound it makes. It sounds very rich and it projects across the room very well. I'm very picky on minor pitch differences since I've played piano and guitar my whole life and I hear nothing wrong with it. Everything sounds in tune, as it should. As people say, looks come secondary when it comes to an instrument. However, this I think this Ukelele is straight gorgeous. The mohagony really gives it the authentic Ukelele look and there are grooves on the body that gives it an awesome flair. It's very well built. My only concern is that the top string goes out of tune if you play it for a few hours, but I think it's due to it being new and the strings are still adjusting. Nothing to be too worried as you can tune it easy in 2 seconds and hopefully it will be fixed once its been played a lot. Other than that, I'm a happy camper. I love how portable it is, as all Ukeleles are! Plus, the sound just brings a huge smile to my face when I hear it. Totally worth the money, I can't recommend it enough for all those people that want to get their first Ukelele. That about wraps it up, I hope you enjoyed the review.

Lo compré para un regalo. Conocía la fama de la marca y había tenido ocasión de probar un par de sus instrumentos de gama similar y un poco superior que tienen dos familiares y me habían gustado el tacto y el sonido. Tras leer tanto aquí como en otras plataformas reseñas eminentemente positivas, finalmente me decidí por este modelo y creo que fué un acierto. El sonido, siendo un instrumento de entrada de gama media, podríamos decir, es bueno, cálido y no demasiado estridente (dentro de las posibilidades de un ukelele soprano). Los acabados, remates etc. impecables, se nota atención por parte del fabricante, al que su fama le precede. El tacto del mástil se me hace muy agradable. Aunque yo no toco habitualmente el ukelele, sí llevo más de 15 años tocando instrumentos de cuerda de todo tipo y he tenido y, en alguna ocasión, probado ukeleles (en algunos casos más batalleros, pero en otros de gama en principio igual o superior) con un tacto más basto, un poco sensación de pequeño "leño" y este no es el caso. Como dato adicional, la persona para la que lo compré llevaba unos meses aprendiendo a tocar con un ukelele prestado muy batallero y al probar este, incluso no siendo una persona con demasiada experiencia en instrumentos de cuerda, notó una diferencia en sonido y comodidad a la hora de tocar considerables y quedó muy contenta con el regalo. Creo que no es tanto que yo sea especialmente maniático o exquisito, más bien que la diferencia es notoria y el tacto es objetivamente bueno. Mantiene la afinación razonablemente bien tanto durante sesiones más o menos largas como en lapsos de mayor inactividad, lo cual, a pesar de que sea una muy buena costumbre darle una pasada de afinación antes de tocar, es de agradecer, sobre todo para tenerlo a mano y tocar en sesiones breves por diversión o para gente que esté iniciándose y le suponga un poco "suplicio" el andar afinando constantemente. En definitiva, muy satisfecho con la compra. Por sacarle un mínimo "pero", quizá hubiera sido un buen detalle de cortesía por parte del fabricante que viniera con alguna funda simple aunque fuera de tela sin más (que por otra parte, en mi caso en realidad no hubiera utilizado puesto que junto con el ukelele regalé también una funda acolchada muy apañada). No es un contra, para nada, sigue siendo una compra magnífica, pero si hubiera quizá sido un buen detalle para alguien que no tuviera mucha intención de sacarlo de casa pero quisiera mantenerlo protegido del polvo, por ejemplo.

I know this is more about personal experience with a uke in general than it is about the actual product, but I will get to that, also. I had been trying in vain to learn guitar, and one of my main problems is that my hands are too small to chord properly. That's why I first went looking for a ukulele. I heard that for one, with a smaller neck, and only four strings, it eliminates that issue. Two, it's easier to feel strumming patterns. I don't know if that's true for everyone or not, but it sure has been for me! Three, they're just so darn cute! So after a TON of research, reading reviews, product specs, etc, I settled on this one. It was affordable; and I LOVE the finish. Plus, it comes with aquila strings on it, so I didn't have to restring it immediately. I could focus on learning how to play the instrument before having to figure that out. It arrived a day earlier than the original delivery estimate, first off. Which was good, because I wanted it SOOOOO bad! When I pulled it out of the box, it was so much better than I thought it was going to be! The finish is spectacular! It's a matte finish, so that you can see the beautiful mahogany. The sound is perfect. Like I said, I did a lot of research before buying. One of the things I did was search comparison videos on youtube. Although there were some ukes that topped the sound, the cost was enough of a drawback that I can honestly say that within this price range, there is NO comparison!! I love that I have been able to just pick this thing up and play within a couple of hours. I couldn't do that with a guitar no matter how hard I tried!! All in all, it has been a VERY good little instrument for me so far. As a side note, I purchased a uke tuner from a different seller, and it hasn't arrived yet, so I used my sister-in-law's guitar tuner. I didn't even know you could do that, but it worked! I guess no matter what the range of the instrument, g will always be g, c will always be c, and so on.

I had bought a Rocket US10R but that was claimed by granddaughter so looked for another one a little more substantial and preferably with better strings. This one had consistent good write up plus Nygut strings already fitted. I'm not a super duper player but like to tockle along. This Uke is very good quality, looks beautiful too and has beautiful clear sound. It comes with Nylgut strings which make a big difference and saves you buying them later. Nylon strings need regular tuning anyway but these are easy and hold their tune well, only very minimal adjustment needed before playing. The cheaper strings on previous model didn't need much adjustment either after bedding in, but these sound and feel far superior and settle almost immediately. Delivery was super fast and within days. As a bonus it came with a very good quality Uke bag, which isn't made clear in the description. Taking into consideration the Nylgut strings and the bag. not speaking about the excellent built quality and sound of this ukulele makes it a fantastic bargain, It always sits near me and I have to smile each time I look at it. I highly recommend this one.

Produto de ótima qualidade. Boa madeira, bom acabamento, ajustes das cordas preciso.
