    After several months of shopping for a new concert ukulele, I settled on this new Tenor. I like a spruce instrument and this one really caught my eye. I had to have it. This was my first time ordering from HMS and I could not be more satisfied. Joel was great and helped me out when I missed something on my order. When my new uke arrived, it was better looking than the pictures. It was packaged beautifully and I could see the care that was taken in shipping it to me. As soon as I started to play, I could appreciate the set up. No buzz anywhere up or down the fretboard and it was silky smooth. The tone was really nice. Fingerpicking produced a nice bell like tone. I am very happy with this Kala. I hope that I can honor MGM with joyful music. Oh yeah...I still need a new concert.

    If Faberge were to craft a ukulele it would look like this one...pure eye candy. The straight grain of the Englemann top and rosewood back/sides is absolutely gorgeous. It is a joy to play and produces beautiful tones. It absolutely chimes when I pick bar chords in the higher register. Well done Kala. I'd like to thank Andrew, Crystal, Joel and anyone else from HMS who had a hand in getting me this little cutie. I've been playing guitar for over 50 years and it was so refreshing to get a stringed instrument that I did not have to take to my luthier for setup. In addition, the package included a case, humidifier and free 2-day FedEx shipping from Hawaii. I'm floored. Bravo team HMS, you have won my business and respect! The next time you get twitching with UAS, this will do the trick quite nicely. Trust me, you want this one.

    I'm a relatively new player and this is my first "quality" instrument. I'm in love with it and pick it up every chance I get. Besides being a gorgeous ukulele, the sound and playability are superb. I'm mostly a fingerpicker/chord melody player, and the harp-like clarity and note separation are outstanding. It's not too shabby for strumming, either! It's currently strung with Worth Browns, which really make the notes pop. I'm extremely happy with this Kala ukulele and also happy with HMS's service, selection, price, and setup.

    Happy, happy, happy!!! I just received my ukulele and I am so impressed. The Ukulele Site ensures that you will receive a beautiful instrument to both look at and play. This ukulele is a work of art and the tone is so resonant. I had mine strung with a low G and really like the way it handles the jazz style. I've been playing guitar for over 40 years and have played around on various ukes, but could never find a quality instrument in town. Thank you!!

    This is my third and favorite Kala special edition. I didn't really need the damn thing. My tri-back is nice and bright, and my Sweet Pea acacia is a joy to play and has a deep, full sound. So when Santa put this in my stocking with Southcoast linear strings, it made it harder for me to spread the love. My wife immediately commented on how good it sounded (my dogs became jealous because it was taking up too much of their lap time.) I will probably make the switch to re-entrant strings and tuning someday, because I play that a little more and think this will be my favorite, but for right now I don't want to touch a thing. This was my first ukulele from The Site, but if UAS ever strikes again, I'll be back. Set-up was perfect. With the case thrown in, an exceptional deal.
