I've been doing tons of reading and researching (probably too much) all about ukuleles. I was pretty sure I was going to get the Islander MS-4 since everyone seems to be in agreement that they're great. But now I'm doubting the size choice. I went into Guitar Center, knowing they wouldn't have much, but just to at least pick some up before I buy something. So even though I love how tiny the sopranos are, I think maybe the concert is a better size. I don't know if that is because they only had really cheapy feeling sopranos or not, I'm going to go to Sam Ash to see if they have any better quality sopranos to feel so I know if it was the size or the quality that I didn't like.
So anyway, now I'm looking at the concert size, so obviously the Islander MC-4 is a choice. But I had picked up a Cordoba at the store (I think it was Cordoba 20CM) that felt nice. It was loud in there and I don't know how to play yet but what I did hear sounded good to me. I did some looking and that one is $149 and it comes with a case, and it has a solid top, where the Islander is $109 no case and all laminate.
And then I was looking online and saw the Kala KA-C for $98 & Kala KA-CG for $119( I think they have a solid top? Only difference is satin finish or gloss I think? Worth $20 more for gloss?)
And the Cordoba 15CM which is $99, all laminate, no case.
So now what do I do? Any opinions and help!!! would be wonderful and so so helpful, hopefully, haha.
