SEXY AMAZON UKULELE UNBOXING

[@stevencochran7506]

I got this same ukulele about 7 months ago. It was my fourth ukulele. I use it primarily now. I love the unique look and it sounds great. I don't know anything about the brand, and I was skeptical at first, but it has proven to be a good instrument. The tuning also was never an issue for me.

[@diankristianto5488]

i really want to hear the sound for this ukulele after the tuning is stable. I want to buy it for ammoon soprano. i think it is similar.

[@simank2970]

Please tell me about the tune thing! Does it stay tuned?

[@tempeleng]

@@diankristianto5488 The ammoon looks the same but has an electric pickup.

[@myrnasaldana6061]

I’ve been teaching a little girl that’s become sick. And I do homebound visits. I bought her this very same ukulele and she loves it. She is learning very fast. The ukulele has begun to hold its tune after 1 week of playing it. She has been using her journal that we got from you. I think that journal is a miracle worker. If you want I can email you her picture holding her uke. I think this uke is a nice starter. Btw, I only have 2 ukes. A soprano and a concert. I will buy a tenor soon, but that’s all I really want.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

MYRNA!!! 👋 how are you!? Long time no chat :) Thank you for letting us know your thoughts on the ukulele. This is so good to hear. This summer I will be adding more chapters to the book, so stay posted. I would LOVE a photo of this girl and her uke 😃 that is so sweet!

[@angeliaphillips]

Myrna Saldaña awesome comment. Prayers for your student and thanks for sharing this. I work with a special needs child as well and have recently incorporated uke lessons into our regime. It's been very therapeutic for him and tho he struggles with finger placememt, he gets so excited when he's learned a new chord that he acts like he just won a marwthon, lol.

[@myrnasaldana6061]

Angelia Phillips it truly is a wonderful thing that we are doing with these children. We touch so many hearts with our love of music. Kudos to you and your student. ♥️♥️♥️

Well,I'm 59, never tried any musical instrument. Now chronic diseases have forced me to try new ways to have fun. You make it seem so much fun that I have saved enough to afford an inexpensive one and your lessons. Thanks heaps. Wish me luck!!!

[@Montgomery_Weird]

This is a very nice looking good sounding instrument, and you did a great review. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to get past the fact that it has words etched into the top of it. No thanks! It would be like buying a new car that has the word AUTOMOBILE painted on the side of it. Why is the word "GUITAR" even on there. I don't get this.

[@richacello339]

I have a tenor. I enjoy the simplicity of the uke compared to playing guitar. Plus, you can sing normally or even hum, and hear yourself over the ukulele. The tenor also leaves enough room on the fretboard to move my fingers around, where the smaller sizes feel cramped. However, because the lowest note is a C, I tend to think of it as a C-centric instrument.(As opposed to the E-centric guitar.) Also, C is the easist chord, so it seems like a lot of songs are in C, though A is handy too. Also, on the guitar I'm used to fooling around with the E and A to play bass runs, and riffs that I can't do on the uke, unless I'm in C. I tried a guitalele, but it's too many strings in too small a space, plus it tunes to A, although it can be played with the same shapes as guitar chords. The baritone didn't impress me one way or the other, I kind of felt like if I were going to be tuned in guitar, I might as well be playing a guitar. So, it looks like I'm going to stick with the tenor, because it is a different experience than the guitar. I've seen some electronic tenors, though, that might be the next uke. Another advantage of the uke: more cost effective than guitars, that's for sure. Love your lessons.

[@f1948s]

The only problem I see with this ukulele is that there is no way to access the internal pick up parts if necessary other than removing the top which would not be very feasible. Probably never need to do that but with the Amazon price I am blown away. I think I may have found my Father's Day gift everyone keeps asking me about. You are just awesome. Keep posting. I love seeing you because something good always comes out of your videos.

[@larryknobloch4419]

Not too many so far. 1soprano, 2 concerts, 1 tenor. I had a baritone but I gave it to a friend who wanted to learn but couldn’t afford one. I hope to get another baritone next year. Just found you channel and look forward to learning from your tutorials. I was having trouble progressing but your videos are helping. Thank you!

[@StephanieDouglassMusic]

I have 3 - 2 sopranos and my baritone which is my love. I want a tenor! I will get one soon. :) That instrument is gorgeous. 😍😍😍 I love that it has pegs for a neck strap. WOW, that's a full-sized guitar capo! Ha! I'm looking forward to hearing more of it as the strings settle. Omg your cats! 😻😻

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Hey Stephanie! It's always so nice to hear from you 😁 Ohhh if you love your Bari, I think you will really like the tenor as well. It feels good to have such a full-sized uke. I'll post updates here and on insta. I hope that the strings settle well on this one. It's such a cute design

[@gabrielemalatesta8978]

In my opinion I think if you buy a new Uke it has to be purposeful. Like buying a different style or size, maybe getting a banjolele or a tenor opposed to your normal concert size. Getting a Uke for asthetic would definetly be something musicians with a lot of money can afford. But it's your money and your life. Cool collection btw!

[@larrytalley117]

How many Ike’s I own? One. How many I want to own? All of them. 😃

Your videos are so very smooth. Unrushed and seamless. I bet I have watched all of them. I am trying some new editing. So let me know how it works.

[@fretlesstuba]

Simple practical tip: No fret markers on top? No prob.. Just wipe surface clean, and use liquid paper to dot the top to get a nice visual. Easy to scratch off w finger nail if u no longer want it. Easy to touch up too, just re-dot for periodic maintenance. Works for beginner classical guitarist not used to having any fret marking on fret board, and top side of neck.

[@fretlesstuba]

forgot to also mention, great for bass players switching to fretless bass w no markers.

[@SeanVplayer]

I currently have two of my own, a Luna acoustic-electric concert, and a Mitchell baritone. I have purchased 3 sopranos, (a Mitchell, a Donner and a Mahalo), a Donner tenor, and a Rogue baritone for the church group. I have plans of acquiring a Hankey acoustic-electric tenor in a couple of weeks to add to my personal collection. Following that, I have plans of adding a Caramel acoustic-electric baritone. I am probably typical of your basic musician with G.A.S. (Gear Acquisition Syndrome). My bass guitar collection consists of a Fender P-bass, a Carvin LB-75 (five string), a Peavey Millennial 5-string, a Rogue fretless 4-string, a Michael Kelly Dragonfly acoustic-electric fretless 5-string, and a Dean Pace electric upright bass. Three 4-string basses and three 5-string basses, three fretted and three unfretted. Pretty balanced right? And only two sets of drums, my acoustic set of Rogers drums I've had since the '60's and my Yamaha electronic set I bought two years ago. I enjoy your unboxing videos where I can vicariously enjoy new instruments as seen through your eyes. Please tell us also how well the frets are dressed, and whether they have what has been described as "fret sprouting", (frets that protrude beyond the fretboard). I have had two ukuleles that I had to file down to make them playable. Your cats must LOVE unboxing days... They get New boxes to hide and play in. Thanks for the video, and sharing with us.

[@tommorrisey3999]

Only two ukuleles in my household; a laminated mahogany Hula Ukes concert, and a solid-spruce-top Hola! tenor with laminated ebony back and sides and an open (slotted) machine head. Both have been restrung with Aquila red string sets. The concert is re-entrant, the tenor has an unwound Low G. I would be happy with just two ukuleles, just not these two. I am saving (very slowly) for a Blackbird tenor and a Kamaka baritone (the Blackbird first).

[@mikehaugen4246]

I am still waiting for my first ukulele to arrive from Amazon (4 more days) It is from Caramel, but it looks like this one without the words etched on the front. Also, I spent a couple of dollars more fore one that has the electric option built in.. I'm super happy that this one sounds as good as does. So, I'll be started your 30 day challenge next week... I'm a complete newbie and starting at 60+ years old. We'll see if you can teach an old dog new tricks.

I was given this as a gift, and my first ukelele. I absolutely love it - it has a beautiful sound and the wood is so gorgeous. The strings set within a week, it now holds a tuning very well.

[@srjscott]

My wife and I each have one ukulele. The first one we got was a concert Fender Zuma from Guitar Center. The second one we got was a tenor Enya EUT-X1 from Amazon based on a recommendation from you. I’ve been shopping for more as I want to start encouraging some of my neighbors so we can have some neighborhood campfire jam sessions. If we get any good at playing, we may work it into some of our aviation hobbies. We are trying to build an aviation themed playground at our local airport so kids and their families can come and play and learn more about aviation. Once you move to Bethesda, I may try and entice you to participate if you’re up for the challenge. 😜. We’ll see... Oh, and we have one cat that use to be a neighborhood stray but adopted us.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

How do you like your Fender and your Enya ukuleles? I always like to hear the feedback from you guys for future people who ask about these ukes 😃 Jose and I will definitely accept an invitation to a neighborhood campfire jam session, so let me know how these go if you convince your neighbors 😉

[@srjscott]

Bernadette Teaches Music: That would be so awesome if you and Jose did visit, you have inspired me to double up on my efforts. I like both the Fender and the Enya. The Fender’s “C” string has started buzzing a little bit. I had one of the guys I met the other night at the jam session take a look at it and give me his option. He thinks the piece in the bridge should be raised as he thinks the action may be too low. I put new strings on but the buzz stayed so he gave me the next course of action to try. I think before I do I will take it to Guitar Center and see what the guys there think it is. I was mildly disappointed with the Enya at first as I didn’t like the thin strings and the low volume. However it does have a very rich pleasant sound and the customer service at Enya is really awesome. They sent a junk plastic capo with the purchase of the ukulele and when I complained, they sent a nice metal capo plus a new set of strings at no charge. Bottom line, I’m glad I took your advice on purchasing the Enya.

[@davidjones9931]

Just purchased a Paisen tenor, had it a week. I love the wood colour and beading, but I love the fish, just so cute I’ve developed a habit of checking tuning before and after practicing to help settle the strings in and it is holding tune well. It wasn’t as ‘plinky’ as I expected a ukulele to be and was delighted to hear its warmth. I’m in my early days of both owning and playing a ukulele and I am not disappointed. After a lot of searching for useful resources on KZbin I have subscribed and beginning to watch and learn from your channel archives. Thank you Bernadette. 😘

[@NickMarotta]

Hey Bernadette. I think this uke is sold under different names as I have one which is pretty much the same except the brand is Amoon and the writing on the front says "Amoon ukulele". It also didn't come with any extras. It has a pickup (and strap buttons!). And the same fish thing on the front with the same soundhole.

I have the same design too, but without the engraved words on the front. All the rest is exactly the same though, and it is called a Paisen? Also says Paisen on my gig bag. I see they have Bernadette's video under the Amazon listing under Paisen, even though her uke has a different name? Rather confusing... I'm very happy though, it has a lovely rich sound.

[@duchess3530]

You asked how many ukuleles we have: I have 3 brand new ukuleles they are: 1. Kamaka Koa Tenor Ebony Slothead $3,745 ; 2. Kanile’a Tenor Premium Solid Koa $2,000 plus; and 3. Bondi Concert Ripple Solid Koa 309.00. I have not touched a ukulele; however, I am planning to learn how to strum. My first lesson is - How to strum. Am doing good with that.

[@don6538]

3 Tenor Ukuleles :Kala KA STG; Kohala M1-T; Kala KA ATP5 CTG 5 String. My favorite is the 5 string, cedar top over acacia body for a sweet sound. Instead of one g string, it has a doubled g string pair , high and low, and meant to be struck as one, like a 12 string guitar. Sent you an email about this a while back after watching your low G replacement.

[@don6538]

Just followed your link to Amazon for more details on that (rosewood?) ukulele. Price seems really affordable. Also states it has a curved back for extra volume. Your comment on the G chord tuning aside, it does seem to have a nice overall tone.

[@don6538]

Also own a few guitars, including a 12 string.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

yes, everything says rosewood, which is confusing because of the price! I am going to email the company and get a clarification on that. The price is great and the volume is pretty good too. I took it to jam with friends and played it today. Still testing it 💗

[@don6538]

Didn't get any info searching on "Tianyu" for ukuleles, but did pop on Wikipedia, "Tian Yu (171-252), courtesy name Guorang, was a military general of the state of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period of China." (I am curious by nature.)

[@coldfusionmusical]

Used to have one cheap soprano uke that doesn't stay in tune, given to my baby nephew as a toy. Now I own a concert uke, a budget one but I chose it because it has a nice tone, very happy with it. I'd love to get a tenor uke but I get very attached to this concert one, don't know if my heart be divided having two. See how, maybe it'll stick to my current one for a really long time, to season it. If I get another one in future, maybe I'll make one a low G uke and one remains a high G.

[@jennifercarmo1145]

I had 3 ukuleles, but I am quite still trying to find my 'final' ukuleles. I have sold two of them and will sell my last one after I buy one to replace it. This week I bought a Kala watermelon ukulele because I thought the children from my class would just love it, however, I'm returning it this week. It looks lovely and the sound is nice but it is just way too quiet, I think the heavy paint on it just muffles the sound. So for now I only have a Kala soprano one. I saw that ukulele on Amazon and also at Aliexpress.com but never felt confident enough to buy it. The down side for me is that I don't like the message written on it, (however, the one I saw on Amazon here does not have it) and the strap button comes in the direction for a right handed person, they could have put it in the middle thinking about left handed people as well... A part from that it looks nice...

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Hi Jennifer! The OMS concert ukulele has a really nice and loud sound. I unboxed it here on this channel before and my friend, Vasko, from Ukulele Cheats plays it often. He said he liked how loud the sound was as well. It does come with strap buttons for a right-handed person, but if you bought a strap with a lace, you could pin it at the bottom (like all straps) and then tie it at the headstock (like guitar players often do). Many people (myself included) like the sound of the Cordoba and the Oscar Schmidt. Might be worth checking out ;)

[@jennifercarmo1145]

Bernadette Teaches Music I heard a lot about Oscar Schmidt but they are hard to find here in the UK. I’m considering a Cordoba also, but I need to go to a store to try it. Today I just received a very fun ukulele! A Mahalo Alien glow in the dark! It was so fun I couldn’t resist, needed to have one on my collection! I’m just loving it! 😄

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

👽👽👽 that’s so funny!! Yes, the Córdoba is really good! I’ve heard great things about Flight ukuleles too, by the way!

[@Teeum5]

I started playing at the beginning of 2017 with my first concert uke. Then bought another - just to compare the two and return one of them. Then I found a little and cute soprano. And another to compare. And so on... 😂 I returned none of them but still think about selling the one or the other. All in all I have six ukes right now and two of them are my favorites I play most of the time. Some days ago I went to my local music store to buy some better strings for my concert uke and the shop assistant hurried to show me some new ukes he had in his store. One of them a baritone which I don't own yet... now I'm thinking about a baritone all day long... 🙃 Very funny video, Bernadette.

[@tiffanieelek8740]

I purchased this for my boyfriend for his birthday. I was afraid that it wasn’t going to sound as good as his other ukuleles, but we we’re surprised that it has a great resonance. I am glad it was a great price for all that you get with it.. and as for the capo- he uses it on his acoustic guitar lol Also, his does not have the added letters on the front.

[@tomzifer927]

Lovely Ukulele. It's also so dark and matte. Just the writing on it that throw me off. But I love matte finish on ukulele because all of my classical has glossy finish. The capo really is too big. My own guitar capo is not that big.😅😅😅 I only have 1 concert size ukulele but in the process of searching the right one to expand. As I told you before I have 5 classical and 1 of it is fretless. Great job on the unboxing. It was so fun. 👍👍👍

[@kindlethestars]

I only have one ukulele but I can think of 4 more that I want and I'm sure there are more that will get added on to the list... (lack of income being the only thing that is holding me back.) The different color woods on this one around the soundhole - what would you say the design is?

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

I was looking for the company's name for this design, but they seem to market the rosewood more than the design. Other people have told me the design reminds them of the Ovation guitar, though! 😃

[@kindlethestars]

Thanks Bernadette! :)

[@nancisabino6872]

I just bought my 2nd one. My 1st is a tenor; I just bought a soprano. So when it gets here, I’ll have 2... but my collection may grow. I don’t like the writing.

[@davidmolloy126]

I have two Tenors, one Concert, two Mandolins, one Tenor guitar, five High D 'penny' whistles, and a big bruiser Low D Whistle. I would like an really good quality Concert model, but finances don't allow I'm afraid. Great video, thanks very much David 😎🎶🇬🇧

[@TheThesmyths]

Hi, Bernadette. I have a Laka soprano, Kaka tenor, Brunswick baritone and Yamaha guitalele. I have acoustic and electric guitars too.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Ohhhh nice variety here! Which one is your favorite?

[@cryptocosplay4121]

Also have you ever wanted to review the hard case ukulele gigbags? Ive seen a few on amazon ,I'll try and add a link after I find one.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Yes! I would love to review a hard case. I hope that a company reaches out soon! ✌

[@jasonragon9771]

I have 3 ukuleles so far. That ukulele doesn't look bad and I prefer the dark color.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Jason Ragon which ukulele brands and sizes do you have at the moment? 🤔

[@jasonragon9771]

Bernadette Teaches Music populele, cordoba tenor and soprano from a luthier in south texas

[@georgeroberts442]

I have somewhat more than 60 Ukuleles. Most are displayed in my music room. I play them all. These are current/recent models that are intended to be played, not displayed.

[@kanni_m]

I only have two - a soprano and a concert, but I've only been playing for less than two months. I don't have a number in mind of how many I ultimately want, but my Amazon wish list has somewhere between 25-30 ukes I have my eye on. If anything, I definitely want at least one tenor in the immediate future.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Kanni Matsunaga 😂😂😂 you could start a ukulele school with all of the ukuleles in your amazon wish list!!!

[@kanni_m]

I’m not a hoarder yet, but I can see how easily that can happen! I don’t have tattoos but I hear it’s the same thing. You get one, and you’re already thinking about the next one. It’s endless! 😭

[@grasynblack]

I have 4- -A solid-top concert mahogany Aklot uke -A mango wood Oscar Schmidt Tenor -A Kmise concert banjolele -And a yellow plastic Aqualele from Bugsgear Still want more though 😂😂

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Grasyn hi Grasyn!! Nice to meet you! I don’t think we have chatted much before! 😃 What do you think about the Aklot? I’ve heard of this brand, but I haven’t played one yet!

[@grasynblack]

Bernadette Teaches Music Hey Bernadette! The Aklot was my first ukulele and I think it might be my favorite one! The action is nice and low and the sound is resonant and bright. I think it’s a really amazing choice as a beginner uke:)

[@myukulelejourney2024]

I have 5 ukuleles, now, and I just became infatuated with them in May of 2018! I started with a Kala Electric/Acoustic Concert, then a Mugig Acoustic Concert, then, a Kala Acoustic Soprano, then, a Kmise Tenor and a Kmise Baritone. I'm not a great player but I like them all, although, I think I like the concert, then, tenor, then soprano and lastly Baritone. I think that may be because I have small hands.

[@kevt6151]

I have 3 on the wall!...love them!

[@paulbederio7705]

Aloha, Bernadette😺. Yes, I am stricken with the ukulele hoarder disease. 2 Mya Moe Tenors, 1 KoAloha Opio guitalele, 1 Ojai Valley Tenor, 3 Ohana Tenors, 1 Oscar Schmidt OU9 Tenor, 1 Kala UBass, 1 Goldtone acoustic electric ukulele bass, 1Kamoa E3 Concert 🙀. I will get a Pepe Romero Jr. Spalted Mango or Hawaiian Koa Tiny Tenor. Blessings from Ventura, California. Paul

[@XavierMaire1]

I only have a cheap but ok soprano I bought in Ochanomizu in Tokyo during my working holiday there. I think my next buy will the Kala KA-KCGE-C (laminated Koa but looks beautiful and seems to sound good) if I go for concert and/or Kala KA-SA-T (solid acacia, stunning sound) if I go for tenor

[@mercedeshawk81]

I have 3, but I want one more. A Luna high tide uke

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

which size do you want that in? Do they make it for lefties?

[@mercedeshawk81]

Bernadette Teaches Music well they didn’t used to, just righty with a cut away. But recently it came out on soprano size without the cut away, so I could just switch the strings and it would work

[@scottbryant6220]

Hello!! Have you ever tried Oasis ukulele strings? I had the intonation problems with the Kala I just bought that had Aquila strings on it. It hasn't had intonation issues since. I am not sure if they are available in Japan, so if they are not let me know if you would like to try some of them out and I will send you a set in the mail. Thank you for another great video!

[@lestorhaslam]

I bought some Living Water strings and they sounded great on a Kala that was around ten years old and not expensive when I bought it. You didn’t say how much it cost. Great video, thanks you.

[@lisahoyt1918]

I have 6. But the amount that I want is n plus one. Where n is the number of ukes I have.

[@agatakitowska6385]

Hi Bernadette, i love your channel to this point that i have started to learn playing ukulele :). On April i bought ukulele soprano Boulder Creek Riptide with a dual port system - 1 on the side, 1 small port in the front on the upper right bout. In fact, this is my first ukulele and i'm really beginner, but I have a feeling that something is wrong, the uke make an annoying buzz sound and i don't know how to get rid of it. Is this could be because of my not good technic of playing or this is an ukulele defect. Do you have any experience with that kind of problem and/or could you advise me something in this case? Thanks in advance

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Hi!!! Buzzing is a very annoying problem! My first piece of advice would be to have a music shop or another musician look at your ukulele. If you don't have access to either of these, go down this checklist Please update me :) ukuguides.com/maintenance/how-to-fix-ukulele-string-buzzing/

[@lawrencehenry600]

i have 4 ukuleles. 2 Tenors kA15-T, KALTP-MH, MK-C, KA15-S all Kala products. i love the KA15 line. perfect setup from factory and great sound.

[@diannefoxx3086]

I have finally have 1. It's a beginner "Strong Wind" Tenor. What do you think of that brand?

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Haven’t played with it yet! What do you think about it? 🤔

[@thomasmanfredi8523]

I have what is sometimes referred to as a "bakers dozen" (13), and I have my eye on several more. My favorites are my kalas and my Oscar-Schmidts.

[@laurenj4344]

I have two! A mohalo constellation soprano and a redwood b20 baritone! I love them and I want many more and I want at least one of every size too!

[@cherynarcher4641]

I have 3 soprano ukes, with another (my first pineapple) on the way. Next will be a concert uke.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Ah you love the little ukies! ☺️

[@cindyhughes4952]

I laughed so hard Bernadette at 7:20 Oh My Goodness! Exact same thing just happened to me the other day. I have seen a ukulele similar to this on Rich Davis’ KZbin channel. What is that design? Is that a feather maybe? I own the Enya pineapple (which I play at work) a concert Red Cedar from Mainland Ukuleles here in Indiana, a Lanakai Baritone, a tenor Aklot (with the low G string and I LOVE IT!) and I stumbled upon a soprano Kamaka so that’s 5! Wow! I am surprised! One in every size! Do I have a favorite? Do you have a favorite ukulele?

[@cindyhughes4952]

Maybe that’s a squirrel design on the front of the ukulele?

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

it kind of looks like autumn leaves to me 🍂

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

yes, which one is your favorite? My current favorites are the Kala gloss and the Enya M6 👏

[@cindyhughes4952]

Ha! I guessed one of your favorites would be the Enya M6, but I really thought your Lanakai Tenor would be up there also. My most favorite is my Mainland but surprisingly I really love this Aklot tenor with the low G! Its a bit smaller than my Granddaughters tenor (I bought her the Lanakai like yours) so it is really comfortable to hold in my hands.

[@alexgin1031]

Bernadette Teaches Music Coi fish?

[@hanby8285]

I have 1 sopranino, 3 sopranos and 3 concerts.. which i realize right now do sound like a lot. But i have temporarily given two of them away to people who wanted to learn how to play and i plan on (maybe) selling one of the others. So i'll settle for 4 as my final answer ;) im not done though. I would like to try/buy a Tenor and a 8 string Ukulele as soon as i get the chance.

[@annabellewhitener]

I have 2 right now but I am earning money for one with a pickup. The first one is my older brothers from when he was my age. It's a long neck soprano from Walmart lol. The second one is a Mitchell Concert. Oddly I have been playing for two years but I still want a Makala Dolphin ukulele even tho it's a beginner uke :)

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Annabelle W oh? Walmart carries ukuleles now?! Wuuuuuut?! Wow 😲😲😲

[@annabellewhitener]

I don't know if they still do, but if they do don't expect much.

[@Margareth20648]

I love this uku! I put in my wish list! I can't have yet! But it is beautiful!

[@meganporter1473]

I’m very new to the ukulele but I’ve noticed a lot of people own lots of ukes! I got a tenor for my first one, because I thought it would be easiest for a beginner. If I end up getting a second uke, would you recommend another tenor, or a different size?? (I got an enya ukulele because it wasn’t too expensive and came with lots of goodies!)

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

I would definitely get a different size if you're going to invest in a second one! I would also try a different brand just to experiment, you know? Is there a music store nearby where you can play with different uke sizes?

[@meganporter1473]

Bernadette Teaches Music yes, there’s one very close to my office!! I’ll stop by this weekend, thank you 🙏🏼 🎶 🎵

[@larrytalley117]

Good evening to you. That uke looks like an Adamas guitar by ovation. I used to have one of those so many years ago. I love your unboxing sand reviews. If I find a uke to buy along the trip to Alaska I will try to do the same.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Yes! I totally agree with you. The crazy thing is that it is INCREDIBLY light! Glad you like the reviews on this channel ❤️ I will keep them coming as long as companies keep sending them to me!

[@MsIvilla]

My mom owns one of those ovations. It was what got my attention 😄

[@larrytalley117]

The adamas ovations were wonderful to play while wearing a strap but the fiberglass back made them too slick to play while sitting.

[@virginiacates3415]

I have only been playing for four months and already have ukes. A Mahalo soprano, a Donner concert and an Enya Tenor

[@LeSiZmOr]

Hello there. I have 5 ukes currently. I do have the ebony wood tenor Caramel branded cousin to the one you featured in this video. Mine also has a piezo pick up and 3 band eq / tuner on board. The Caramel branded ones don't advertise "UKULELE GUITAR" on the top. Kinda silly. But good value....at least my Caramel CT904 is. Same design, sound hole(s).. fish / leaves looking thingy as well. I rather like mine.

[@iAmMadeOfSoup]

I saw this one too. Just not sure the holes are big enough. I don’t like the writing. Has a really pretty sound though. I have one 1 Luna Concert. I’m getting a Donner soprano soon

[@ginaweith9475]

I have 4 ukes ... a high gloss black soprano, a low G Kala travel concert uke, a restored 100 year old banjolele and a new baritone that I love from kmise . Looking for this one specifically in a tenor. So was really happy to see you created a review/unboxing. 👍🏽. Thank you for this. A Bass uke will probably be my next one. I’d like an electric one too. I don’t see an end to buying stringed instruments. I think there’s a banjo and a guitar in my future too. Maybe a mandolin? I’m beyond hoarding. I’m a junky 😜

[@karenlynnkennedy6162]

I have a Lanikai tuna uke, a Diamond Head electroacoustic tenor, and recently acquired a Mahalo concert(my favorite so far) but I would love to go for a non-traditional soundboard uke....hope to go for something really spectacular eventually. Kala or Oceana U KULELES. Dreaming.....

[@iya9047]

I have one uke as of now. Maybe 4 ukes?? I wanna get all the sizes.

[@oliverdots]

I have 2 Ukulele's but want a Suprano Kala Blue to go with my Concert Kala Blue.

[@brucestevens2639]

Hi Bernadette. I don't have a photo but it was the Tianyu like the one you reviewed. I have seen it with the name Amoon and Carmel. Jody from Girl Meets Uke just reviewed the one they copied. It's an Applause made b y Ovation with the Ovation back. I had an identical Ovation guitar years ago and that's why the Tianyu appealed to me. The action was not set and the second fret on the G string hit the fret and buzzed. Rather than to pay someone to set it up I returned it. They claim to be Rosewood but the Amoon sell for under $60.00 on Amazon.ca so you and I know what kind of quality that would be. I can't play guitar anymore because of my back so I started Guitalele and ukes about 6 months ago. I started playing in 1960. I bought a new Gibson J 45 in 1963 for $200.00 with case and a new Martin D 28 in 1966 for $420.00. Those were the days. Thanks for your reply. Bruce.

[@yolinpeng4091]

hello friend ,our brand just Tianyu and Paisen. if you still have any question about our ukulele ,just send email to us. yolin52@gmail .com and we promise ,it's rosewood . Thank you !

[@davewebster6945]

I have 3 ukes, Ohana CK28 concert, Laka VS 70 soprano, Kala KA-SSG soprano. Its the search for a tone I want and the search for one that also feels good to play. At least thats what I think im after 🤔.

[@davewebster6945]

And now I want a Mainland Mango soprano and a red cedar and rosewood soprano too 🤗. Ooh and Michael Messer Blues resonator guitar too 😁.

[@vilteb1915]

I have one ukulele which is a concert. I really want another one tho!! Recomendations?

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Have you ever picked up a baritone ukulele? It sounds totally different, but I LOOOOVE it ❤️

[@allandavenport5235]

Great video. Might seem a foolish question, but how easy/ difficult is it to change the strings on this ukulele?

[@marivelrivas4118]

Future uke hoarder here. I own 2 Lanikai's. One soprano and one concert. My next uke will be a tenor. Lol

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

😆 accepting you have a problem is the first step! Sooo will the tenor be a lanikai too? 😉 😂

[@marivelrivas4118]

Bernadette Teaches Music That is what Im trying to figure out. Lol! I had played some Kalas and Lunas back at the music conference in February. Maybe I'll go for an Enya.

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

Marivel Rivas oh yessss!!! I go back and forth with my favorite tenor uke. Sometimes it’s the X1 Enya Tenor and sometimes it’s the KA-TG Kala Gloss Tenor. Let me know which one you end up choosing!

[@nashdome]

i only have one ukulele for now, but my goal so is to have 3. I have a concert so the next ones i'd like to get once i've gotten more comfortable playing is a klos uke with pick-up. And a soprano cause they are too cute!

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

NegaNash that’s a good number to aim for! Sopranos are totally cute. I don’t have a standard soprano right now, but hopefully soon 🤞🏼

[@theemeraldruby]

Answer to your question: I own 4 :s I have a soprano (in standard tuning) a concert with a low G, a banjolele handmade by a friend of mine and a baritone! They seem to multiply!!

[@BernadetteTeachesMusic]

they do seem to multiply 🤔 that's what I will tell my husband next time there's a new ukulele in the house

[@andrewjohnson4843]

Hi I have the baritone electric version and the feel and tone of the ukulele is excellent. Very good value for money 👍
