 a fun toy, but not a true instrumentJun 01, 2010
By benjamin vorspan
I got this uke a long time ago... probably a decade ago, on ebay, before I realized how easy it is to be duped on there.
This is a toy. That's all there is to it. The fret board is plastic and is screwed on. no real musician would want to use this in public (or private). Ive tried tuning it, and Im aware that ukes generally are tough to keep tuned, but this thing wont stay tuned long enough to tune itself... you tune the top string, and by the time you've tuned the bottom, the top is out of tune again (have you ever heard anyone say "tune" so many times in one sentence?).
having said that, if you're looking for something to give a 2-year old to play with, this will be great. you wont be worried about it being dropped or broken, and the plus side is that if you could get it to tune for more than a minute or two, you can play a few songs with it as well.
Spend a few dollars more on a real uke. keep in mind that if you plan on keeping it around for years, or even decades, you dont want to kick yourself each time you take it out. spending $20 extra now could result in a lifetime of happier "ukeing"

 Yukey JuniorMar 27, 2009
By Mary M. Smith
"Avid reader"
Named my baritone ukulele "Yukey" to make it easy and call this soprano "Yukey Jr." It is adorable and was so easy to tune and play.
Already play the baritone ukulele and wanted to learn the soprano and tenor. Found the soprano easier to tune and play then the tenor.
Really a fun item.
