Although Makala is apparently a budget part of the KALA brand, it has a nice sound and a good feel. It feels and sounds solid, well-made, not at all like a toy which many starter ukes do. The action on some notes at the top fret isn't always great as the strings are set kind of low, but you might be able to drop one or two of those notes to the second fret where there is more action, without much change in the tone. That's the only down-side of this uke, otherwise a 5-star; good for the price, easy to play. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful: ![]() By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Makala MK-C Concert Ukulele I bought this from Amazon based on recommendations given for the brand on ukulelehunt.com. It came recommended based on the low cost, good build quality for the price, and the fact that I wasn't sure if I'd want to keep playing the Uke after a while (I'm a guitar person). The web site that suggested this got it all pretty much right on. It's pretty well built for an entry level instrument, the wood is very attractive. The tuners are decent and work fine. I'd recommend buying a set of strings with this Ukulele because when it arrives it won't be strung right and thus won't stay in tune no matter what you do. My two issues are: 1) The tone isn't so great, so if you have a decent ear, you'll be able to tell right away that the chords you're playing don't sound quite right. To someone without experience with music, you might not be able to tell, though. Seems that the tuning is closer to being correct near the nut than the bridge, so I think that's...

For the price and quality you really can't beat it. The company "KALA" that makes these is well known for quality and craftsmanship. If you are new to the wonderful world of Ukulele and are looking to make your 1st purchase, this is a wise way to go. When I was shopping for my 1st uke I was overwhelmed by all the sizes and brands and models. The concert sized is most popular for the beginner because its more comfortable to play while you are learning. Its not just for beginners though. Due to its warm rich sound many people still prefer to play the concert over the traditional soprano. I also own a Mitchell MU70 which is very glossy pretty and decorative. Side by side you'd think the Mitchell (which cost 2x the price) would be my fav for playing & sound. NOPE I much prefer this Makala. |
