21 Inch Soprano Ukulele Starter Set, Pink

For £17, can’t go wrong really. Cost the same as a single music lesson, which my daughter has used this for every week for the last 5 months. It tunes up well and hasn’t had any issues despite less than gentle handling by a 5 year old! Even if it falls to bits tomorrow it’s more than paid for itself.

We bought the Martin Smith Ukulele with Gig Bag for our 6‑year‑old, and it has been such a great purchase! The size is ideal for small hands, and the lightweight design makes it easy for a young child to hold and play. Right from the first lesson, my child was able to form basic chords and strum simple tunes with confidence. 🎶 Playability & Comfort The strings are soft and gentle on tiny fingers, which is really important for beginners. The action (string height) is comfortable, so my child doesn’t get frustrated with hard pressing. The included chord chart makes learning fun and approachable — we can practice together without needing a teacher right away. 🎒 What I Like • Perfect size and weight for children (especially ages 5–9) • Easy to learn basics — simple chord shapes and strumming • Comes with a gig bag, so we can take it to lessons or music class • Good sound quality for a beginner instrument 👎 Minor Notes • If your child gets very serious about ukulele, they might want to upgrade later • Tuning can slip a little at first — but that’s common on starter instruments

Its a ukulele. Strings are poor quality so needs restringing for proper use. Great for beginners, lovely colour of red on the back of the wood. Great gift.

Lovely item. It has bold colours and looks lovely. It seems to work well though was initially a little stubborn to tune. Definitely worth the money and perfect for a beginner

Good product however did not come with spare strings or a pick as described in advert

The kids love it

I wish I could give this zero stars. It is truly awful. The obvious thing to get out of the way is the adage that "you get what you pay for". Frankly, anyone who thinks they're going to get a custom made, professional grade string instrument for sixteen quid ought to book an appointment with their doctor. There are cases where buying cheap is necessary or appropriate, but know that you're buying something made on a Far East production line that won't have been anywhere near a luthier. I bought this on the assumption that it's going to be tested to destruction, so it was a choice of cheap and replaceable, or bombproof. The latter is too big an investment for a child who may not take to the instrument at all. An additional requirement was that it had to be blue, which rules out most serious models anyway. Having read multiple warnings to avoid Mahalo ukes, I decided to take a punt on a Martin Smith. But there is another side to the low end of the market: merchantability and fitness for purpose. And this product fails miserably. Never before have I had to strip down and rebuild a new instrument to make it playable. The only reason I didn't send it straight back is that my daughter couldn't have coped with that. The tuners were just shoved on carelessly, so that they sat at an angle to the headstock. I was able to refit them correctly. The frets were all bent and not seated properly. I took them all off, cut deeper grooves and reseated them, but they're still a bit wonky. The action was too high both at the saddle and the nut. I've made some effort to correct that. The result of my input is that it's at least playable now, but the intonation is still a bit off. The sound is dull; I'm waiting for some new strings to replace the toy ones supplied with it, but it's a bit like polishing a turd. (UPDATE: As I expected, a set of Aquila Nylgut strings has vastly improved the sound. It actually sounds like a uke now! However, that doesn't negate any of the above.) I'm going to replace it with a Makala Dolphin before she starts her lessons. It was worth the gamble in our case due to our particular situation, but there is no need for anybody else to waste their money. DO NOT BUY THIS UKULELE.

Beautiful product... really well made, good quality with a nice booklet for beginners

good value, great fun to be had

Muy buen producto, a mis hijos les encanta, esta bien para iniciarse en elinstrumento, ya que las cuerdas se aflojan y se desfina rapido. Pero relacion costo beneficio, muy buen producto

c'est un très bon rapport qualité prix . La construction est soignée , le son est agréable , pas beaucoup de points négatifs . Bien sûr il faut le réaccorder souvent mais quoi de plus normal quand les cordes sont neuves , il faut que ca se fasse . Ce n'est pas un instrument pour des concerts mais bien adapté pour des soirées amicales Les frettes ne sont certainement pas changeables facilement mais c'est une opération à faire tous les 10 ans .C'est un trés bon produit bien pensé .

Bra kvalite och bra pris

Correspond à mes attentes. Premier instrument pour un enfant de 7 ans, impeccable
