Product Review (submitted on May 20, 2012):

I've been waiting for this uke for a while since I play classical guitar (not well), and this uke looks exactly like my guitar so I figured it would complement Spanish songs and instrumentals. It's my first Tenor and I dig the size over the Concert; however, the sound is not as rich as I was hoping. I definitely appreciated the ability to hear the instrument being played on the HMS website as that was helpful in my decision. Honestly tho, I tend to gravitate back to my concert size Makala (put together by MGM when he ran his own thing) as it still sounds PERFECT after 1yr and is more fun to play than the Cordoba. Setup was OK, except the strings at the bridge were tied at the G string end and the bridge was a bit sharp so both issues annoyingly rubbed my arm. I cut the excess string and after playing it for a few mths these issues have gone away. If I had to do over, I'd just go with the Kala Tenor - not as pretty as the Cordoba but no doubt will sound and play much better. No more free shipping over $100? Boo :(
