    • Good ukulele, pricey, not perfect, but it has a great sound and charm!
Size: FreeBoost (26-inch) Color: Sparkle Blue
A very nice ukulele. It feels premium and has excellent features with a long lasting battery. The strings are a real highlight. They are some of the best strings I’ve played on in a long while. They hold tune for a long time and coupled with the manufacturing (very smooth fretboard with a slight radius and great feeling tuners) they just feel great and are very bright. The effects module is very responsive and produces great sound. The body resonates very well and does a great job projecting despite the small sound hole. This thing feels great and has a great thickness profile. But now for what I don’t like: the price. It’s a great ukulele but at the price it feels more like a fashion accessory or a show piece... even though the case is awesome. I would like the delay/chorus switch to be added on the exterior of the body. Having to reach inside kinda takes away from the possible blends you can make and reduces some of the ease of playing. In addition, the action is great up until the 10th fret where it grows very thin almost tin-like. I think it would benefit from interchangeable bridges and nuts. While not a perfect solution- I think it would be a good stopgap until something like a truss rod would be possible. Maybe a slight angle to the headstock could even out the action across the board if used in conjunction with different bridges and nuts. (A staggered bridge would be amazing as well). Lastly, at the price range for the what you get- I feel another $100 is absurd for a strap and charging cable. We’re getting into Apple territory with the “high end accessories”. All aside it looks great, and plays pretty well. It even sounds great when fed through pedal effects. If this is your first or second uke- pass on it until some upgrades are made. If you want a fun little uke to play with your friends, are able to splurge a little, and have some experience then it is an excellent piece to add to your collection and a great conversation starter. ... show more

    • Lava U is a great company!!! This is a wonderful instrument!!!
Size: FreeBoost (26-inch) Color: Sparkle Gold
Lava U has warehouse space at Amazon. So Amazon filled the first order. My first Ukulele didn't work the way it was supposed to. So this lovely company stayed in touch with me the whole time and was willing to do everything to make the sale right. After discussing between Lava U and Amazon, it was decided that a new instrument needed to be sent to me. So that's what they did. This Tenor Lava U is perfect. Everything works well on it and it's fun to play. As soon as I can I'm going to order the special Ukulele strap for it and the electric pickup. They have a kit that includes 3 specialized picks to assist with different play forms and sounds. But I don't use picks when I play. I have a lot to learn so maybe at some point I will do that. It's a nice kit. If you want the set, I'd encourage you to get it. This is a lovely instrument and this company is wonderful to do business with. I'm thinking about ordering the guitar from them whenever I can. More playing reviews need to be featured on the Ukulele because everyone I watched just sat and talked about it mostly. People need to see how well this Ukulele really works. So I hope that a professional will make some youtubes on this beautiful instrument. It has a very nice sound to it compared to my Makala Concert C, which was my very first Ukulele. Most professional wood Ukuleles that cost more, in the local music stores in my area, don't usually have the beautiful sound that my Makala has. The Makala was purchased from a professional performer, collector, teacher, and music business owner from Hawaii eleven years ago. So this Lava U Tenor Ukulele has a beautiful comparable tone. I'm very, very pleased with this instrument and it's well worth the price. This Tenor Ukulele has electronic features that you can use in performances. You can connect it to an amplifier or not as you choose. Whatever your playing capabilities or style, you can definitely show them off with this Ukulele. Thank you very much Lava U. :) ... show more

    • What a great advancement!
Size: FreeBoost (26-inch) Color: Sparkle Gold
First, I ordered the Lava U uke on February 17th, and it was delivered on February 21st! All the way from China. The trick here is to order on that says, xx are in stock. If you order one that says 3-5 weeks--I wouldn't order that color. There should be enough choice to get one that satisfies you. Now for the uke: Freakin' amazing! Mine was already charged, and I've been playing it for hours. A USB charging cable is included, and charging it takes a few hours--then it seems to play forever. Everything this outfit does is first rate. The packaging was amazing, with a "zip-open" heavy duty cardboard box. Inside the box the uke case was enclosed in a styrofoam shell, and the case itself is beautiful to look at, and bulletproof. As for the uke itself, it sounds great acoustically, and with an amp. Plenty loud both ways. The effects buttons (reverb, chorus, and delay) are fun to play around with, and really work great. They could knurl the buttons for easier adjustment, but no real complaint considering everything else. The carbon fiber body is flawless; smooth as an egg all the way around, same goes for the fancy case. The tuners are top drawer, really smooth to operate. the strings are fluorocarbon with a high G. A strap button is attached at the front of the body, but not where the amp cable goes in. I found a solution, listen up! Get a "strap jack" on Amazon for about $7.00--there's your rear strap button! Simply remove it if you want to plug in an amp. I'm going to suggest this to the maker, but I hear they are coming out with a strap button shortly, we'll see about that. What else? Well, this is just an amazing step forward in musical stringed instruments. You don't need an amp to get effects--how cool is that? Here's something that most uke makers always seem to leave out, nut width. Really gets to me, other than the ones that let you know up front (Kanilea, Koaloha, and others). This uke is the typical 1-3/8" nut width. I prefer a 1-1/2" nut width with decent sting spacing. Anyway, I like everything about this uke, and highly recommend it. ... show more
