First of all, hello! I have heard nothing but good things about this site and was hoping for a little advice regarding the purchase of a second ukulele. I have been casually playing since about July last year just to learn the basics on a Navy Mahalo U30G soprano (it was bought for me as a little fun gift after I expressed interest in learning to play the Ukulele.) and I understand the this ukulele is of a poorer make compared other brands. Nevertheless, I've been happy with it so far and I've stuck with it, so now I have looked at the idea about what I'd like for an 'upgrade' of sorts :The Kala Ka-CGE electro acoustic concert ukulele (Mahogany gloss model)

I was wondering if anyone here has had experience with this particular uke and whether or not I should even consider other brands etc,.
I am unsure if the pre-installed pickup in this is worth it and am questioning if it is better to pay to have a pick up installed in the non-electric version, even if I just play for fun in my spare time as opposed to investing in higher end gear for serious playing. I am stepping up my game a little in terms of how much time I am committing to playing as I find it to be brilliant little instrument to play, but have a budget of
I was also thinking about getting a little honeytone amp as well for it,

but have seen a similarly little amount of reviews online that might give me a guide.
I am looking to get concert for a change in scale and if possible, a solid top one. I have heard that kala are a good quality brand and would appreciate any comments on how reliable their ukuleles tend to be.
Any advice on this possibility or even recommendations of other ukes within this price range would be greatly appreciated as well and I look forward to getting really involved into playing with the help of the site!
