Kohola Deluxe Solid Top Baritone Acoustic Electric Ukulele

Great Ukulélé

I’m a senior who has tried playing guitar in past but gave up. I bought a baritone for the reason that it is similar to guitar. I love the rich sound of baritone. Long story short is that I’m also relearning guitar and playing the uke has helped me make the transition.

Nice but a bit disapointed

Just got my baritone after almost a 2 month wait. The positive side : It sounds REALLY good, the fret edges are smooth. The esthetics and feel in my hands are pleasing On the down side: the groove in which the saddle sits in was cut a touch too wide resulting in a forward tilt of the saddle not properly sitting on the piezo pick-up. And my biggest problem is the fact that like almost all ukuleles in that price range , the intonation is all over the place. Varying from 10% to 22% at the 12th frets. I can clearly hear the sound beating when playing the open D string with the D on the G string for example. Carving a compensated saddle isn't really a task I enjoy doing. The carrying bag that comes with it is thinner than the $80can Kmise I bought on Amazon. Still, In the end, this ukulele will sound great AND play great. But I didn't expect to have to spend that much time to get it there...
