Have you ever asked yourself 'what ukulele should I buy?, or, 'what's the best ukulele in musical instrument shops?' The Got A Ukulele reviews page collates the largest independent list of instrument reviews there is online.
Think of it as a 'Ukulele Buyers guide' to advise you as to what's the best uke! (Items in Bold are those that I think deserve the highest praise, and those in red are the current top scored instruments!).First in the list are the ukuleles, but scroll down for ukulele accessories!
Oh, and please - don't get too bothered if you disagree with a review - these are just one man's subjective opinion (which is the ONLY way to review something.. I find it odd when people get annoyed by subjectivity..) If you have the same uke and love it, then that is cool too... naturally. In fact - this rant on the subject may interest you..
You should also read this which is my policy on monetisation on Got A Ukulele

**Important notes about the ukulele reviews**
I am often asked 'how the overall scores work'. The really simple way to consider them is...
Scores in 9s - absolutely essential and recommended by me
Scores in 8s - recommended by me - minor issues
Scores in 7s - reasonable, but some bigger issues you may need to be mindful of. Doesn't get a full recommendation but may suit you
Scores in 6s - as per 7s, but much bigger issues leading me towards suggesting you avoid unless it absolutely floats your boat and you can deal with setup issues
Scores 5s or below - avoid like the plague!
Bear in mind, all my reviews are COMPLETELY IMPARTIAL and subjective and I don't do paid reviews, or good scores for free instruments (many sites do, not me). Subjective because they are one persons opinion and personal preference always comes into play (I do point out where views are subjective though and those that are objective.) And this is also not one of those dreaded 'uke reviews' sites which have just used Amazon reviews hoping you will click and earn them affiliate revenues- these are real reviews! They are made up about 50% of ukuleles loaned to me by shops and brands with the other 50% bought by me with proceeds from the adverts on the site (it's the reason the site HAS to run adverts - to bring you more reviews). In either case I say so in the review. On rare occasions a brand (particularly with cheap instruments) decides its not cost effective to ship a ukulele back so they don't collect it. These are either donated to local school, given to ukulele raffles for charity or on sold on to buy more ukes for review which, one way or another then end up going to charity. Sorry to go on about that, but some people do like to claim that I work for uke brands or a uke shops - I really DO NOT! In fact reviews that do that are utterly pointless.
I am in touch with all leading brands, so if a brand is missing from the list I will let you draw your own conclusions as to why! I suspect some are concerned with honesty..

I have been using a great tuner for Android (don't know if there's an iPhone version), called DaTuner. It is a chromatic tuner which is remarkably easy to use and very accurate. The free version is great, but there is also a paid version with more bells and whistles.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone heard a banjo ukulele by a company called Broadway or a company with a model called broadway. It looks very old. the back is from a good quality wood with RKO radio shapes cut out.
ReplyDeletehas anyone trid chineese hanknn ukes they are all solid woods (exotic) and look tasty but no reviews
ReplyDeleteHiya,
ReplyDeleteDo you know where I could purchase a hard case for a matching pair of concert uke's ?
Thanks
Mick
Sorry had to put ID as anonymous as I don't know how this works
my email address is digelsa@talk21.com
Any chance of one of your fine reviews for a Baritone Uke in the future? There are a lot of us Bari players out there!
ReplyDelete@Kit - there is a Pono baritone review above - but funny you should say that - the next review is of a Baritone!
ReplyDeleteAny chance of a guitalele/guitar-ukulele/etc. review at some point? Seem to be more and more of these cropping up at the moment - would be good to have your thoughts on them.
ReplyDeleteI noticed that you have yet to revue a Gretsch. Here in the US they seem to have a pretty good price point.
ReplyDeleteNorm - yes I asked Gretsch to loan me one - but they are one of a few who were not interested. Make of that what you will!
ReplyDeleteHi! Please do a review of the Cordoba UP100 Concert uke. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi. You say that you are going to review Flight DUS 320 soon. But is it possible to know your review score in advance, if you have already tried it? I was just considering buying one these days. Thanks for the site!
ReplyDeleteSadly not - haven't even opened the box yet - will be a few weeks yet!
ReplyDeleteGot an ultra cheap soprano uke as an xmas present and am loving it, and thinking of getting a cheap concert now.
ReplyDeleteI was impressed with your review of the Octopus Soprano. Have you tried the Octopus Concert yet? Would love to know if they're as good as the soprano version. £30 on amazon is tempting me!
Not yet - hopefully soon!
ReplyDeleteHi! Thank you so much for your reviews; they're very entertaining and informative. I was wondering if you could help me out as to why there's very little coverage on this blog and others regarding ukuleles produced by companies famous for making guitars like Fender, Martin, Cordoba, Oscar Schmidt, etc. I did see one Martin review, but none of the others (unless I missed them). Are those types of ukuleles typically frowned upon? Can you offer insight there? Thank you again.
ReplyDeleteWhy not even a single review for a Oscar Schmidt?
ReplyDeleteBecause I have asked them multiple times and they have thus far not responded with any assistance. 95% of reviews are loaned to me by brands. Oscar Schmidt have not. Make of that what you will
ReplyDelete.prig - there are som eexceptions, but generally speaking I am not a fan of guitar brands making ukuleles. They are usually heavy, over built (built like guitars) and less than pleasing. Fender, Cordoba, OS fit into that category. A great exception is Martin - they have a terrific following and make wonderful ukuleles. Certainly nobody is frowning at Martin!
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if you have looked at Lohanu ukes and what you think of the? I just purchased their concert bundle since it was within my budget. I hope that I picked up something decent for a beginner. I appreciate all of the info you offer on your site.
ReplyDeleteHaven't yet played one Greg - but will put em on list to try to get hold of!
ReplyDeleteI have two Koa-Pili_Koko tenor ukuleles (one for Low-G and the other high-g) that are my favorites. I'm curious as to why these instruments haven't been reviewed by you.
ReplyDeleteBecause they haven't sent me one - I rely mainly on brands loaning me instruments for a short while
ReplyDeleteHello Barry, I was lucky to get a Collings Uke for a big birthday...what do you know about those, Austin TX is where they are made...mine came with Alvarez strings on it, too
ReplyDeleteJudy Odrezin, USA
I do Judith - you got a belter - stunning ukes and guitars. Incredible in fact. Played a couple, never had one long enough to review though. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHoping to see Fender Venice review soon :)
ReplyDeleteHave you reviewed any Gretsch? I don't see any listed.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking at a 9120-SK tenor and wondered what you thought.
Thanks for all the time and info!
Afraid not - the vast majority or reviews rely on brands working with me and loaning me instruments. I’ve asked Gretsch many times but they never reply. Clearly don’t want to be reviewed...
ReplyDeleteHi, I was wondering how you feel about a Lujex Soprano ukulele and if it is a good instrument?
ReplyDeleteHi, have u reviewed any aklot ukulele?
ReplyDeleteNo I refuse to. I don’t agree with their marketing tactics one bit.
ReplyDeleteAnd what are they?
DeleteSorry - not giving them airtime. All that is relevant is Got A Ukulele will never feature them. That's enough for me.
DeleteI agree with you on their marketing. I have the tenor and it seems to me that it is really good value at that price. I think Aklot are shooting themselves in the foot!
DeleteI do agree with your point regarding their bad marketing. I have their tenor. My first uke, and i think its really good value at this price. Its a shame they are shooting themselves in the foot like this.
DeleteBarry I got a solid wood spalted pecan soprano ukulele.do you know of any makers who are using pecan wood.
ReplyDeleteDear Barry,
ReplyDeleteThanx for all the great reviews, it helps a lot! I'm looking for a ukulele for my mum. She played the uke when I was litlle but when it broke down she never played again, so I wanted to surprise her...
On the internet I found a secondhand Hudson HUK-s. Have you ever had experience with this brand and type of uke?
Kind regards,
Martine
Are you going to do a review on your KoAloha Barry?
ReplyDeleteYes, I will - just a few weeks away
ReplyDeleteWill you be reviewing the IRWIN BANGOLELE - (i just bought one). Is it exactly the same as the KIMEZE?
ReplyDeleteNope
DeleteHello Barry
ReplyDeleteSorry to bother you, quick question have you come across Excelsior Tenor Ukulele please.
Many thanks and Merry Xmas....
Zeb..
Sorry - not heard of them Zeb
DeleteJust driving myself mad trying to buy my first luke, a tenor, but want a reasonable one whose sound I can love to encourage learning. In the UK so any thought on Tanglewood please? Looking at the TUJ5?
ReplyDeleteWhat do you know about the Aklot ukulele. Apparently they have a solid mahogany top and neck with lament body. Reviews I've seen in US are positive - some are very positive
ReplyDeleteHello Barry,
ReplyDeleteDid you experiment the Ohana TK-50g ?
What do you think about it please ?
Best regards,
RB
Sorry, i'm afraid i've not played that model
DeleteBarry, you like Snails - why no Amahi reviews? They are one of the more common brands where I am so I am always curious how they stack up to the brands I never get to see and touch locally.
ReplyDeleteNot sold in the UK market!
DeleteCan anyone tell me anything about Kasch Ukuleles please?
ReplyDeleteNot personally played one, but they are cheap, generic far eastern instruments. Most likely re-badges of something else. Not likely to be all that great would be my guess..
DeleteHi Barry! :)
ReplyDeleteI was wondering: what is the best concert ukulele available in the price range of $50-$150? Thank you!
I was asked what I wanted for my birthday and opted for the FLIGHT TUS50 SOPRANO based on the review here.
ReplyDeleteOMG what a delight. I am so happy with it.
Thank you so much for the review.
Now to start planning next years present!
Hi Barry, great site! Such helpful reviews. Have you ever heard of Honolulu? They are a small Canadian company with very competitive prices for solid top ukuleles. Just wondering if they are the real deal.
ReplyDeleteThanks
Sorry a typo, my mistake should be Honolua. I think it was auto corrected on me.
DeleteJust received my Noah rosewood concert because of you .your face said it all when playing it your review was much appreciated keep up the hard work even though it looks like fun to me
ReplyDeleteHi Barry! Could you maybe review the Enya MUS-04? That would be amazing. I'm looking for a good sounding and looking ukulele with a price below $100, and I'm wondering if this is the one!
ReplyDeleteThank you.

ReplyDeleteHi, nice channel and website.
ReplyDeleteLike we say in the Netherlands, just to barge in, I am missing something. World celebrated guitar luthier Jean L'arrivee has a line of Ukes called Leho. I do wonder how they compete or compare in your vast list. I would say these need to be excellent, looking at his guitars and thus I am interested. Having said that I an also eyeballing a flight princess sophia at a very good discount(not the effects one)
I like to sponsor a local shop, but he does not have Leho in house, so I would need to go from pictures, and hardly any reviews.
The flight would not be sponsoring a local shop, but a bax-shover. This model did recieve good reviews.
Looking forward to your opinion on Leho vs the flight.
Thanks, Marc
I would also be interested to see the Leho in this vast list!
DeleteWow, you reviewed so many Ukuleles!
ReplyDeleteErrr..... Impartial and SUBjective???
ReplyDeleteCorrect - impartial as I am not paid in gift or money by brands to review them so there is no incentive, and subjective because they are one persons opinion and people are free to disagree with me.
DeleteImpartial and subjective means fair and professional. Thank you Barry, keep up the valuable work.
DeleteHello! Thanks for all your reviews. Have you seen any "Fame" Ukuleles? They are very affordable (starting at 15 Euros, less than $20). The Model "Fame Roundbody" is supposed to be extremely similar to Travel Ukuleles made by Mahilele and Flight. The "Fame UKE-S BW" is also dirt cheap. I would appreciate your insight. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'd also be keen on an opinion regarding Fame ukes - a lot of schools are going to be interested in these as a cheaper alternative to Octopus and Makala, and it's be good to know what your take on them is in comparison to Mahalo, Martin Smith, Gear4Music, and other assorted novelty firewood...
DeleteDear Barry, Thanks for the amazing work reviewing all these ukuleles. My very first ukulele was a cheap soprano 2 years ago, which did not sound very well. I now have a tenor from a better brand which sounds quite well, thanks to what I learned reading your reviews. I also did an interesting experiment lately, which I wondered if you would also try: I bought a DIY kit for a basswood-laminate soprano, dirt cheap as you can find on Amazon. I assembled, carefully measuring the distance for the strings. I sanded down the nut and the saddle to have acceptable action (repeated 3 times, this was not part of the instructions) and installed decent strings (D'Addario Nyltech). I did not paint nor varnished it, only did some marking on the side of the neck. Still sounds like laminate, but much better than my first soprano! Indeed, it sounds... acceptable. Maybe we should do this with kids, to help them understand how these instruments work. I would be curious to read your review of such DIY ukulele.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the useful information... I just bought an uke (Fender Montecido) based on your review. The current version of the Montecito is made of Laminated Acacia, but thanks to your review I figured out that the first version was made of Koa (Solid Top and laminated sides and back!) I also share your website to friends that want to buy a new Uke... because I found it the best source of information of Ukes!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your great job!
Everytime a read one of your reviews I think that I have to write more reviews in my guitar website! :-)
