So I've had a Hilo soprano as my first uke for about a year now and i feel as if it is time for me to move on with christmas coming around i was thinking of buying myself a new uke

My price range is $400 that would also leave me with an empty wallet but if its worth it i would definitly spend that much

Any Suggestions?

Thanks
Shane

It really is a matter of personal opinion as to which one is better. IMO, the UAE-148 sounds better amplified than acoustically. I prefer the traditional design with a pickup should I need to use an amp. As previously suggested, check with MGM, he does carry a lot of inventory as well as other brands not shown.
