really nice uke 0 people found this helpfulRecently purchased this uke--a terrific uke at a relatively low price for an instrument of this quality. Pono's sound good and are easy to play. The LR Baggs 5.0 is amazingly good too. It is likely my personal problem but I could not get myself to drill a hole in the other good ukes I have--it seemed like sacrilege. The Pono I could. The HMS crew are great to deal with and know what they are doing. If you are past the beginner stage of determining whether you are really going to play the uke, highly recommend getting a higher quality (more expensive) uke--It makes a world of difference in your playing--the more expensive ukes sound way better and are easier to play. The Pono's are a nice starting point and a great value for the money--not exactly what I did but what I recommend . Each good musical instruments is unique and as far as I am concerned you cannot have too many good instruments. If you love music, life is too short not to have good professional level instruments .
