I don't think any exist in the price you are talking.

I agree. I think the new Kala is going to run about $599 (here) list and a road toad will run more than that(here).

If you have a uke you could "upgrade" you could get some new tuners and strings here from road toad. You would still have to add the pickup and probably put a new bridge and nut on it to fit the strings. There might be some more work to but that is a start.

thx to both, 800$ as starting range for tenor is bit to much what i can spend on bass uke :]

And the "upgrade" normal to bass is looks great but, the the sadle and bridge make me nervous.... If normal bridge can catch the bass strings...

I must look on all ;]
