Well I had believed to had found the perfect ukulele to buy (as my second ukulele) but i had researched a few things and came up with a few negative things toward Oscar Schmidt. So i decided to bring it here and see if anyone could help me as a Oscar Schmidt Ukulele owner or even just a better informed person then I to possibly inform me of Oscar Schmidt's reliability and maybe even if someone else has purchased the one I wish to get and could tell me about it. Thank you The Ukulele I want to buy is a Oscar Schmidt OU5LCE Cutaway Acoustic Electric Hawaiian Koa Concert Ukulele - Link http://www.instrumentalley.com/Oscar-Schmidt-OU5LCE-Cutaway-Electric-Ukulele-Uke-p/ou5lce.htm
