Lanikai O-8 Ovangkol Series 8 String Ukulele Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This ukulele is beautiful and it sounds great too. Don't get me wrong it's no Cordoba
like my other uke, but for being an 8 string it gets the job done. I would replace the strings
to get the most out of this uke.

Kala Solid Acacia Concert Ukulele Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Howzit! Purchased my Kala Acacia Concert Uke from Hawaii Music Supply in Wahiawa, Hawaii, just today and so far, I love it! I also own a Kala Mahogany concert gloss (my beach ukulele!) and a Maple Flame Tenor (low-G). I've only been playing for about 4 months, but to my relatively untrained ear, I can tell right away that the solid acacia definitely sounds the crisper and cleaner of the three, though the Maple Flame has it's own unique rich sound which I love too. While I was at Hawaii Music I did try some other $300-$400 range ukes, including other Kalas, a couple Lanikai and Pono. I liked the feel and intonation of the Acacia best. Barre chords are no problem and picking is easy. I'm extremely happy with my Kala Solid Acacia Concert uke. Aloha kakou! Mahalo!

Recording King Metal Body Resonator Soprano Ukulele Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For a long time, the only review for this outsanding little resonator uke has been the one-star review, which said awful things about it. So, as much as I wanted a resonator uke, and especially at this amazing price, the little thing sat on my wish list, unpurchased for a very long time. But I never quite gave up on it, and I looked at the listing every so often, trying to make up my mind.
Then recently, somebody with "Ukulele" in their screen name posted a vindicating review, and it tipped the scales for me. I clicked "Add to Cart", and I'm really, really glad I did.
This instrument is everything I wanted. It looks great, sounds great, and feels great in your hands. It has the solid weight of quality, with terrific plating and smooth fit and finish everywhere. The intonation on mine is just fine, and the little beast roars with a classic room-filling resonator sound. I just couldn't be happier.
I honestly don't know how the one-star review guy could have had such a bad reaction to anything like the same Ukulele I received. It's a shame how many people his review might have scared off. Making the problem worse was that until now, there was only one pitiful little picture, so prospective buyers couldn't judge for themselves if the item looked "cheap". I just posted a few of my own pictures, highlighting what I think are some of its nicer features.
If you're in the mood for a resonator Uke with lots of great sound and character, and at a bargain-basement price, don't waste as much time as I did deciding to buy this one!

Epiphone EB-3 Electric Bass Guitar, 2 Pickups, Ebony Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ok..been playing bass for almost 20 years, I'm not rich and although I'd love to buy a Gibson or a Fender I always have responsabilities that prevent me from buying one of those gems. That pushed me to researh and try virtually tons of "cheap" bass guitar during those 20 years and I'll be honest, several times I had to low my head and work with what I had in hand regardless of the low standards and poor quality of any given instrument. EPIPHONE changed that. I own, like thousands out there the Epi Thunderbird and it was a great surprise to play that bass, the quality, the tone and above all, the relaibility of the axe, at that moment I became an Epiphone Fan.
Now, I just recently bought the Epiphone EB-3 for a second weapon in the arsenal and man...those out there that insist on saying that this is a "cheap" chinesse or asian made instrument need to stop and try this axe. Epiphone has increased the bar on this "easy access" instrument to a point that there is nothing to envy (quality wise) from their more expensive cousins. I'm not trying to deny the fact that the quality of a Gibson or a Fender it's by far better, I'll be a moron in denial indeed. But I'll tell you, I pound my Epi bass every week on gigs and rehersals and it's awesome on every count. Looks great, feels great, plays great and it doesnt hurt my pocket.
This is in fact a great buy
OK...I've read from some guys about the "MUD" tone of this bass and things like "it won't cut thru the mix"...well I don't know what kind of amplification, eq, effects are they using...like MILLIONS out there I beef up my tone with some beautiful stomp gems out there. Please take a listen to the EB-3 over some drum loops on my pc (ok it's not a band recording and it's not live..this is just to show you the INFINITE possibilities while recording or even on live settings...I constantly annoy the guys on my band...."hey...dude...turn that bass down would ya' I want to listen to my drums!!!!"
Here is a little nothing I recorded with the Epi EB3 [...]
EPIPHONE EB3 ROCKS!!!!

Epiphone Thunderbird IV Electric Bass Guitar, 4-Strings, Reverse Body, Vintage Sunburst Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar is a looker, beautiful quality finish and the sunburst body is gorgeous. Delivers pounding heavy bass, and good tone control. Be aware that the head stock is very heavy, and the guitar tends to nose dive to the floor is your don't support the neck, you might want to try wearing one at your local GC is possible. Also, this deal doesn't come with a case, and you'll need a special gig bag or case to house this special bass. I'd look for a deal that comes with at least a gig bag.
