Amazon.com Product Description
Perfect for those who prefer the guitar-style geared tuners on their ukulele, this affordable, soprano-sized Mahalo U-30RD ukulele offers a maple body that's stained red, and its fingerboard and bridge are also constructed of maple but stained ebony black. It's complemented by polished brass frets and smooth and accurate, nickel-plated guitar style tuners (14:1 ratio) with plastic buttons for easier tuning. A color-matching red gigbag is included.

Soprano Ukeleles

There are four common types of ukes out there: soprano, concert, tenor, and baritone. The soprano--or standard--was the original, and is the smallest sized uke. It provides plenty of sweetness and that instantly recognizable ukulele sound.


Product Description
Now Mahalo Ukuleles are available in a rainbow of colors. The U-30Rd is Red and comes with it's own color-matched bag for easy and safe transportation to the Beach or the weekly lesson.

5 out of 5 stars Good Litte Play Ukulele   May 30, 2010

It is true that this ukulele doesn't tune well. The strings are made of plastic, and the thing is not even two feet long, but it is still a great value. I recommend this to anyone who just wants a simple little string instrument to mess around with. It plays fine right out of the package and is easily heard. I got mine for keeping in my car and to play at the beach, and for this it is great.

When I first got it, I planned on only playing it 10 minutes but I ended up playing for 2 hours. I found things that sounded good, and for an economy model it produces good sound. The bright colors are also fun. If you have ever thought about picking up a cheap string instrument for fun, this ukulele gets the job done.

My 7 year old son wanted a Ukulele. So, I was looking for something inexpensive yet functional. I knew he wouldn't be happy with just a toy. He's also kind of rough with things sometimes so I didn't want to invest a lot. This ukulele was perfect.
It works great. We actually found a free online ukulele tuner! [..] We tuned it up and he was off and running.

Given that it's so cheap, this ukukele is great once you break it in. It gets out of tune really quickly but after a few days of use, it should stay in tune.
