I've been playing guitar for about 15 years. Last summer my 6 year old son got a cheap 20 dollar diamond head blue uke for his birthday. Decided to get a cheap uke of my own to be able to show him a few things. Bought a kala ka-s that I've been eyeing at our local music store for months. Everytime I went in it was in tune and sounded better than a the others. I brought it home and swapped put the tuners for some Grover tuners and can't put this thing down.
