Beautiful craftsmanship
The finish is flawless and the neck feels smooth. I deducted one star only because the gig bag could be slightly more padded, but overall a fantastic purchase.

Great sound, minor setup needed
Sound quality is excellent for the price. The action was a little high out of the box, but after a quick setup at my local shop, it plays like a dream.

Perfect first ukulele
Bought this for my daughter who is just starting. The size is perfect for her hands, and the included tuner made getting started very easy. She loves the floral design.

Solid wood makes a difference
You can really hear the difference with the solid top compared to laminate ukuleles I've tried before. It resonates well and stays in tune nicely.

Exceeded expectations
I was hesitant about the 'female beginner' marketing, but this is a great instrument for anyone. The tone is mature and the aesthetics are unique without being tacky.

Absolutely Stunning Design
The cherry blossom inlay is even more beautiful in person. The solid mahogany top gives it a warm, rich tone that surprised me for a beginner instrument. Highly recommended!
Q: Are the tuning pegs geared or friction?
A: This model is equipped with high-ratio geared tuners, which make tuning precise and much easier to maintain than traditional friction pegs.
Q: Can left-handed players use this ukulele?
A: Yes, while it comes strung for right-handed play, the nut and saddle are symmetric enough that it can be re-strung for left-handed use with a simple setup.
Q: Is the top made of solid wood or laminate?
A: The Gorilla 2011R features a solid mahogany top, which provides better resonance and improves with age.
Q: Does this ukulele come with a case?
A: Yes, it includes a soft gig bag with shoulder straps for easy carrying and protection.
Q: What is the scale length of this 23-inch model?
A: As a Concert size ukulele, the scale length is approximately 15 inches (380mm), offering a bit more room between frets than a soprano.
