Never disappoint
Brajac 30.11.2022
As an owner of 4 ukuleles (2 Kala's, Mahi-Mahi and Koaloha) must witness that with Kala overall you can't miss. This unusual cutaway model is win-win if you want to have amplify option for the buck (I guess it does not look perfect so pricing is as it is). On my other uke's I have MI-SI trio pickup witch was best in the time (7-8 years ago) and still are top notch IMHO but it's not easy to install if you are not experienced but also it's not the rocket science either, just be careful to not damage the instrument. This model has pretty descent pickup, must say it works like charm as it is pre-installed which is great. It also has a built in tuner and EQ which is extra handy.
Now the quality of the ukulele is not the best. It's tenor sized (in my case) but it's obviously smaller than regular acoustic (Kala) ukes (15-20mm). The fretboard is few mm narrower than on my other models. The edges on body are pretty sharp, which I don't like but it's ok. The cutaway is unnecessary but like I mentioned above it's justified with a price. The tuning pegs could be better, it has open tuner pegs which personally I don't prefer but overall it's a good instrument. wood finish is rough but acceptable. I use a low G tuning so if you plan to switch to LG string you will have to expand the G nut space on the nut, and you will need a file tool for that, do not improvise! Personally don't like Aquila strings but Thomann have Worth strings which are the best strings for uke IMHO so get those at least try them. As a final verdict for Kala KA-TK-T-CE Teak Tri-Top Tenor, if you are beginner or need something cheap for gigs with pickup go for it!

My Gigging Ukulele

As soon as I plugged this uke in I knew I had made a good decision. The sound has a depth to it, and other musicians have remarked on it as well. Having the right sound adds to your enjoyment of playing the instrument.

Bon instrument une fois réglé, bon son une fois branché
Philippe Tolet 06.08.2023
Je l’ai acheté essentiellement pour jouer dans un groupe, branché sur un ampli acoustique.
Une première impression assez décevante, frettes coupantes, action ridiculement haute donc sortir les limes et le papier de verre, si vous n’avez pas l’habitude de ce genre de réglages je vous conseille vivement de passer chez un luthier, une fois réglé c’est un tout autre instrument, vraiment très correct pour le prix. Les cordes super nylgut sont tout à fait adéquates. En acoustique le son est bon mais manque de caractère, c’est branché à un ampli qu’il révèle son potentiel, le piezzo est excellent, donc pour la scène c’est vraiment très bien.
Conclusion un bon instrument qui mériterait un contrôle de qualité acceptable et qui se révèle pleinement amplifié
