Kahuna CLU-50T : Excellent

5 years ago

Used by my daughter for learning and by me for recording. Have had it now for a month. In short - an excellent instrument.

Pros:

- Clear "ukulele" sound, even with the originally shipped strings.

- The bigger size and the cutout shape of this tenor ukelele enable all styles of playing - soloing, struming, finger picking etc.

- Stays in tune surprisingly well after only a few days.

- The pickup sounds great.

- The inbuilt tuner works well.

- Played well out of the box, has good action, all frets are in tune (even 12th fret and beyond), there wasn't any need for any additional setup.

Cons:

- The build looks a little cheap from up close, but from a distance - looks surprisingly good.

- For recording - will sound better miked by a condenser as opposed to using the pickup, but that may be only a personal preference.

Summary - great for all uses and for the price is incredible.
