Caramel 30 inch All Solid Mahogany 6 String Ukulele Guitalele Wooden LCD color display Electric Guitalele Kit Small Hawaiian Beginner Guitar Starter Pack Bundle Gig bag, Strap,Strings Set

The package came complete with all items and was well protected. The size is between a guitelele and a 1/4 classical guitar. It is well made, no excess glue, no sharp frets, no buzz, no damage. Both the tuner and pickup work well and the instrument is loud enough that no amp is needed unless you're playing in a band or with some full-sized guitars that like to show how big they are. It took me less than 3 minutes to tune it and it kept the tuning for at least 20 mins which is rather good for new strings. I am using this to transition from concert uke to steel string as my fingers are getting ripped up by the steel, so the nylon feels rather soothing. I have small hands and fingers so this size is perfect enough to finally learn to play the full F-chord and actually reach it. The only detractor is that it did not come with strap-pegs installed, so I will need to take it down to the guitar store to get them installed because I really like using a guitar strap to keep things steady. I was very impressed with the sound which is fairly close to my larger classical guitar and all the songs I learned on my concert uke play fine on it. I think that others going from a uke to a guitar, or someone coming from a guitar wanting to play a uke that have very small to small/medium fingers/hands would find this a great transition instrument. I am pleased with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone who wants to play guitar/uke at an affordable price.

I needed a really small guitar to use while in my recliner... health issues keep me there more than I like...Found this beautiful little 'baby guitar' and started reading, listening and doing research in general on the guitalele. I am very pleased with this sweet little Caramel! (Pun intended!)This is all solid mahogany... no laminate construction. The entire body vibrates when I strum! Walnut bridge and frette board, open black tuning pegs, with brass gears. There are two well placed strap pins, also.Soft satin type finish - you can actually see and feel the pores in the mahogany. No high gloss... No trim around/on the edges, so you can see the thickness (thinness) of the top attached to the side. The bottom meets the side with a beveled seam - very neat in appearance... No glue drips, or rough edges, just a nice neat little guitalele, well made... and beautiful!It has tuning pegs and bridge pins like a steel string acoustic guitar, but it's made for nylon strings. And has beautiful, full, rich sound with great resonance, sustain and big volume! A bigger voice than you'd expect from something this small!I adjusted the truss rod, when I first got it and was setting it up. It's a real truss rod and did alter the neck, slightly.When I tried to use the tuner, for the first time, it wouldn't work. I couldn't get the battety compartment open, either! Had to very carefully use a tiny little pair of pliers to get it open. Checked the batteries... they were fine. Finally found the little bitty on / off button kind of hidden among the other buttons/knobs. Worked just fine once I got it turned on! Lol!I've had my 'baby guitar' for a full week, this evening - 8/16/21. I've played her so much and the more I play, the more I love her. I changed strings, the end of last week. Used D'Addario ball end, nylon folk regular guitar strings. Now that the strings have settled in, she stays in tune pretty well, so I don't need to do more than a few minor adjustments when I start playing.Just messing around, using my chromatic tuner, I tuned to 432 instead of 440. I like it! Is slightly lower in tone and sounds a bit closer to my guitar.Where I strum does make a difference in tone. Using more the softer side of my thumb, right about where the neck and the sound hole meet is where I discovered the most mellow tone.This is just a great little guitalele (aka baby guitar). I'm so very glad I bought it!

I am very impressed thus far as to whether this is a beginners instrument I can't say that without some caveats. The instrument needed adjustments right away and what is nice is that it is easily adjusted. I thought the stings on it were adequate but a little tubby sounding. If you did not guess already I am using guitar tuning. I opted for a mix of D'Addario Requinto's which are a bit light. I opted to use the Clear Nylon: .022, .028, .033, and the Silver-plated Copper: .030 as the 4th string. For the last two lower string I used the D'Addario Pro-Arte Flamencos .Silver Wound .035 A and .044 ENext time I will go straight to custom set as this gave me a very nice bright and lively tone over all, very piano like even on a small body like this.The quality of the manufacture is very good for it's inexpensive price but it did require some effort and extra expenditure to get it where I wanted it to. I have not tried it plugged in as that is not what I wanted anyway.Feel safe to buy one and experiment with to get what you want out of it

This guitar is enjoyable to play and sounds fantastic! It offers great value, especially if you're looking for something to travel with or to casually play on the couch.However, I have noticed a few issues:1. The action is a bit high, making it challenging to strum, as the strings are at varying heights above the fretboard. Chords in the higher register can be fingerpicked more easily, but strumming is difficult.2. Be very cautious when adjusting the truss rod. When I attempted to adjust mine, the fretboard became loose from the neck. It was concerning to see that the glue connecting the fretboard to the neck did not cover the joint completely. I recommend lowering the bridge instead of adjusting the truss rod.3. While the sound is great, the pickup tends to miss a lot of low-end frequencies when recorded or amplified through an amp or PA system.4. The material of the frets is a bit soft. I'm seeing significant wear and indentions on the frets vs my 25 year old Washburn acoustic.5. Lastly, the fret markers on my guitar are incorrect compared to those on a typical guitar.Overall, I'm happy with the guitar—it's an excellent value and easy to play. It could be improved, but what instrument couldn't?
