I am wondering because I haven't heard anything about them. I was thinking of buying one to maybe paint/carve/be stupid with.
Not as awful as you might think. Check out this link

I have one because that is all the local music stores carry. I changed the strings, and reversed the saddle. I was going to try the needle file to lower the action but the Kala spruce top tenor I got from MGM showed before I got around to buying a needle file. It's playable but the strings are kind of up there. It's sound is nowhere near as good as the Kala though.
The nice thing about it is that I have a uke that I can hand to my 8 year old and just not worry about. It would also be good for tossing in the trunk so you always have a uke with you. If it gets lost stolen or broken....Oh well.
Hmm I already own needle files. And I was thinking about lowering the action on my Applause tenor. (Retail for 350ish) Do any of you personally have experience doing this on a more expensive instrument, and is it advisable.?
i was playing on one for a good 1 year.
Got it signed by Jake. and now framed.
lol
Its an awesome uke to start off.
i loved it.
