Kahiko Plus Series

This is a fine little uke with a slightly wider than usual neck that plays pretty well. It is usually sold at around thirty quid post paid which represents fair value.The price has wobbled a bit over the years...We like these at the right price, and bought several of them for friends and family, who like them too.So should these suddenly become expensive again, a search for the MK1PWTBK (black) and the MK1PWTBR (brown) should find you one at around thirty quid if you fancy a ukulele like this. I really like them, hope you do too!

1st off, the price is about right for the Wide Neck Uke I purchased (around £30), the quality of sound produced is amazing, with a lovely resonance & tone.It is light in weight, colour is sort of a dark creamy brown.The gig bag, is very basic, this is fine for carrying from A to B, but it’s not padded, so not the best in the world, but a cheap padded case is less than £10 if needed.I have big hands, & a standard soprano was too small to finger fret, but the wide neck is perfect.Downside to this Uke is the wood quality/finish is not perfect, it’s basic, not a premium, so don’t expect flawless wood grain of much higher priced Ukes.The quality of this Uke comes from its sound when tuned & playing.I would put this in the medium/higher bracket of beginner Ukulele cost bracket, but don’t go for cheaper plastic ukuleles, try before you buy if you can, & use a tuner app on your mobile phone to set the musician inside you free to play great from day one.

These are great ukuleles. The wide neck is so comfortable (1.5" at nut) and makes playing easy and still get the traditional look and sound of a soprano ukulele.I've read reviews of tuning and buzzing issues. Those reviews were several years old. I guess Mahalo got it together as I've ordered 2 and both came with a great setup. Low string height and no fret buzz at all. I ordered 1 and then ordered a backup. The 2nd that came is a little different. The sound hole is much smaller on the 1st order and the bridge has pearl dot inlays. I also noticed the wood/body seems much thinner on the 1st one. The sound hole labels are different too. The 2nd ordered has a higher serial number so maybe a newer batch with changes. The first one sounds a little brighter and not as much volume. Its really not that noticeable. Could be because of the wood thickness?I added 1/8 pearl sticker dots and installed graph tech tunelele tuners to give that friction tuners look to the 1st order. And a stitch ukulele decal to the back. Love these ukuleles. I plan to add inlay sticker dots to the newer one and planetary tuners. Might play around with different strings or a low G string on one.If you struggle with smaller necks/nut width, give this one a try.

Vale a pena se for apenas para aprender ou tocar entre amigos, para coisas mais importantes é melhor investir em outro

Tellerin arasının geniş olması çok hoş. Çalımı rahat.

De acuerdo, se trata de un instrumento para un amateur o un aprendiz y no está pensado para un profesional, pero el sonido que tiene es tan metálico que si no ves que la caja es de madera pensarías que es de plástico por la mala acústica que tiene.Además el ancho del mástil, al contrario de lo que me pareció al principio, no me resulta tan cómodo como en principio parecía.Aún y así, hay que reconocer que a pesar de todo, está bien construido y Mahalo es buena marca.

Ukulele di prima fascia, legno non dei migliori in assoluto,ma comunque ben assemblato con corde Aquila.Esteticamente bello mentre il suono rimane un pò chiuso, freddo, metallico?. Forse perchè la cassa è piccola...Rispetto ad altri che possiedo la differenza si sente eccome. Certo parliamo di 30€ contro 80...120...250. Comunque il fatto che abbia la tastiera più larga, aiuta molto per chi ha le dita grosse, cicciotte ed è alle prime armi. Quindi lo consiglio per chi vuole imparare a suonare da zero questo strumento. Meglio approfittare però delle offerte, io per es. l'ho ottenuto a meno di 30, e pochi gg dopo era schizzato a 58!.Il vantaggio sta nei 4 cm ed è comodo ma se andiamo oltre la mia spesa ce ne sono di altri di qualità migliore come suono.
