Fantastic value but a little thin-sounding
First things first, this uke is phenomenal value for money.
It does everything you could possibly want an electro-uke to do thanks to the preamp, looks the utter business(I think it's beautifully designed), and the neck and fret finishes were nearly perfect on mine(bought October 2014). I've been in a professional ukulele band for five years now and back when I first got this uke it quickly became invaluable to me and survived many a late-night pub gig. The neck in particular is lovely in my opinion, the inlays are attractive, and the profile makes playing it surprisingly intuitive.
If I had to point out any negatives, I can only find one: the uke doesn't seem to resonate as well as I might have expected, resulting in a slightly thin tone- however through an amp or PA with just a few basic effects it can sound amazing, so I view this as closer to a proper electric guitar than a ukulele in some ways, which can be no bad thing!
Additionally I needed to lower the action to suit my playing style, but I've played ukes costing over ten times as much as this that needed the bridge lowering significantly, so I can't hold this against it.
Utterly stunning value. Looks great, plays great, sounds good. The quality is fantastic for the money and only starts to lose ground when compared to ukes costing double the money, which is a real achievement.

Excellent little ukulele
I love my ukulele, the tuner on top is so handy, it sounds cool through any amp and with a set of D'addario nylons on it, plays like a dream! I can't believe that I got ot for less than €50 now, what a steal.
