Product Review (submitted on December 24, 2012):

I wasn't sure I wanted to spend this much on my first uke, but after reading a multitude of reviews, then hearing Corey play it, there was no other instrument (apart from an Hawaiian Koa) that would do.

When it arrived so quickly, set up professionally and almost as lovely looking as the photos, I was thrilled to bits.

Whilst this Kala doesn't project as well as other ukes I've played (I wish I'd gotten an amp installed to play on stage), it certainly has a beautiful bell-like clarity that I know is only going to improve with time. Everyone who sees it comments how beautiful the wood grain is. Not to mention that gorgeous slotted headstock! It hardly ever goes out of tune and the natural finish feels amazing to play.

The 'uke crazy' canvas covered case and humidifier are a few more extras that just confirms HMS' reputation as a high quality, reliable online instrument dealer.

Based on this experience, I'd definitely buy from HMS again.
