cheap but good!

it's a good toy, a little too simple in details and in varnish, I would expect at least a rosette around the hole ...

highly recommend aquila red series strings (keeps the tuning in A and the sound became deep and full)

Tuners works quite well... and the woods are touch-pleasing. you cannot expect more at this price.

Very inspiring instrument

This guitarlele has made me write music in a very different manner, a pleasant manner.

Fun instrument to play

This Guitalele was a gift, so I played it only few days.

Cons: build quality is a bit worse than what one might expect seeing photos of Yamaha GL1. No color and no lacquer on a few spots on the back of the body and overall finish could be much better.

Pros: very playable instrument and a lot of fun to play. Sound is OK. It is lightweight and easy to carry around.

Even though build finish is subpar, I would recommend this instrument.

Erg goede guitalele voor een beginner. Zeker in vergelijking met de prijs ervan! Mooie klank en afwerking.

low quality strings

my G string was worn badly after 2 days of playing, everything is fine other than that. recommend purchasing extra strings to replace to the original ones

With a high 4th string your Ukulele group can't refuse you

Brilliant ukulele for a guitar player to fit quickly into a ukulele group. Finger-board works great with guitar chords! Only drawback is the slightly rough body edges, which might require some 'retro sanding' and varnishing. Overall though; a brilliant little guitarlele, complete with a high 4th string!

The Guit

This is a lovely instrument, the build and sound quality is are very good. Because of the size it is very handy to bring with you anywhere so you will always be able to get the practice in

Great!

Great for the price! Have one around for the times you just want to doodle around on the guitar, on the sofa when watching TV and so on. You won't be disappointed! Early models had problems with intonation, but newer ones seem to be OK. Sound is about what you would expect for the very cheap price, but the fun factor in considerable!
