Lohanu Cutaway Electric Ukulele - Play Smooth Sounds with This High-Quality Instrument

Kellybird: The media could not be loaded.  Very rich sound right out of the box. Everything you need in the way of accessories is included. The recording attached was made five minutes after opening, tuning in open tune took about 1 minute.

Amazon Customer: Received on time without any damage. Good sound and lots of extras came with it. I found the strings a bit higher off the fret board than my other uke so it may be a bit difficult for beginners.

Amazon Customer: If you are looking for a great sounding concert Ukulele for a decent price and with a bunch of extras, this is the one. I am a musician and tone/feel are important to me so I was thoroughly impressed by this instrument. The Uke sounds great whether it is played acoustically or plugged into an amplifier.

I initially had an issue with the electronics where the onboard tuner did not work; I heard pops when connected to an amplifier. So I contacted customer support who responded in less than a day and offered a replacement, which I received in a few days. They addressed all my questions about the frets and string height and also provided information, photos and links with further information. The electronics/tuner on the replacement worked as expected and sounds just as great as the first one.

Overall I highly recommend this instrument for both beginners and seasoned musicians. Also, a big shout out to the amazing Lohanu customer support team who were focused on the customer experience. Thank you!

Harry C. Bryant IV: I purchased the tenor cutaway model. Prior to getting it, the only ukulele experience that I had was a soprano Kala Makala that I had been playing for about 4 months. I consider myself an "advanced beginner" player. I can play some scales, several single note songs, several fingerpicking songs, and a few strumming songs but I'm not quite and intermediate player. I was looking for something larger than the Makala so that I could practice longer without getting fatigued. This ukulele solved that issue.

I'll start with the bad since the list is short:

- Compared to the Makala, the finish is just not as nice. It's not poor but the finish is dull and a little thin. There's some finish residue in the rim of the soundhole where it looked like someone missed a little bit when buffing it after it was sealed. The color is nice and I think if I keep it stored in a dry A/C-controlled house, it'll last a lifetime but it's just not as pristine as it could be. For what I paid, that's okay.

- The battery compartment for the tuner is really stiff. A youtube review pointed that out. It came with a battery so I haven't needed to remove the cover. However, when I tried to remove...

donna lynn: Update: I've had this over a month now. I play about seven hours a day. Obviously it's a joy to play, otherwise I wouldn't play it so much. I wore through a set of strings already. I'm a hand drummer/singer/singwriter with a few gigs coming up, going to take this to the stage. I love it that much.

The beginner course that came with it was a great start. I zoomed through it in a day. Easy to sing and play with, got me going.

I bought an amp. Sounds great plugged in.

The only issue I had with it is the strings sat high close to the nut. It made, for example, E7 a bit difficult to press down. I took a very small file and lowered it at the nut. The action everywhere else was beautiful.

I highly recommend.

---------------

Pretty good, cute ukulele. The action was a bit high, but easily fixable. I swapped out the strings for a set of Aquila low G red. Original strings were beautiful, however, it was personal preference. I'm pretty happy with this ukulele. For the price, this is a great ukulele for adult beginners. A keeper.

Michael WislonMichael Wislon: I am not an expert on Ukulele's, but I do own three of them. Each one has its unique value in terms of sound, presentation, and utility to a song. I bought this one because I wanted a cutaway as I am teaching myself primarily fingerstyle techniques. As such, I love classical which can be challenging at times do to the use of scales which range across several octaves and therefore a broad range from lower notes to high ones. The cutaway helps me to manage these scales easier.

The Ukulele is a well-made, uses good wood that produces a great tone no matter where I am on the scale. I have used the company's customer service several times primarily through email and their responses have always been timely, beyond my expectation in terms of results. I wish more company's follow their model for being committed to an excellent customer experience.

It can connect to an amplifier, but I am not a public musician anymore but do send a lot of time on composing music. Therefore, it can have a benefit when connecting to my DAW software and hardware for recording. The Ukulele comes with good action where it counts, but if I had my choice, I would prefer a little lower on the frets...

TechTravelMusicGeekTechTravelMusicGeek: I ordered this electric Lohanu cutaway ukulele (Tenor size) for my son for Christmas this year. He was extremely happy with the ukulele as am I. I have been truly impressed with the customer service received from the team at Lohanu (thank you Joseph and Natadel). They have been a pleasure to deal with in both my pre-purchase and post-purchase questions and concerns.

The product itself is a beautifully crafted instrument, with a timeless guitar-like design. The on-board tuner and pickup electronics work very well (we have it connected to a small PA system). The string action is low enough for a beginner as well as a more seasoned player (our uncle demonstrated it's full potential), along with a smooth fret board and easy to see fret markers. The metal tuning knobs are also nicely done. Useful tip: as we have relatively big fingertips, we found this tenor size the perfect fit for our hands, and allowed us to adjust quickly to learning the uke chords.

It came enclosed with everything we needed to get setup and start playing right away: a nicely padded tenor size bag, a separate tuner (though we always tend to use the built-in one), 2 picks (and a pick case), an extra...

Adam Dunn: If you are looking for a nice ukulele bundle I cannot recommend this one enough. There are so many great features for a very reasonable price. The ukulele itself is very well crafted and sounds great. the pattern and company name are etched into the wood and is not painted or a sticker making for a classy look. There is a built in tuner that's very accurate. It also comes with a tuner. I guess I would say, since a tuner is already built in it would be practical to replace the extra one with some felt picks perhaps. That being said though, it does come with picks and a pick holder. There are attachments for a shoulder strap already built in so your ready to go there. The strings are high quality nyglut and you get a separate set as well. I'd say this package comes with everything you need to play the ukuleke. Last but certainly not least, as other reviews have said, the customer support is too notch! I had my ukulele for a couple weeks and saw that the zipper on the gig bag had come off. I was able email them and within minutes they had responded by notifying me they were sending me a new one. Not just a new one, but a better one! I got it in the mail in two days. I am very...
