Again, this instrument is exemplary as it relates to the nut. A nut should be properly cut as to allow the strings to move without binding and the nut slots should be cut as so to allow the strings a downward trajectory into the tuning machines.

The nut, in my estimation is one of THE most important parts of any stringed instrument. However, these frets have been manicured to a level that there is no sensation whatsoever. For anyone familiar with guitars and stringed instruments, fret ends can be a very troubling point of contact with inexpensive instruments. The brass frets are all properly seated and well finished. I've seen $400-$500 guitars have fretwork not as good as this. The pores of the wood are very visible and clearly indicate that this is an excellent example of mahogany. The wood is a deep shade of brown with a dark black grain running throughout. Not only is this actual mahogany, but it is a very excellent example of mahogany. Upon taking the ukulele out of it's second inner most packing box, I could immediately see that it was in fact made of mahogany. The Kala Ukulele arrived very well packed…by both Amazon and from the company. NO stringed instrument should require a Herculean amount of strength. Being that I have given MANY lessons in my day, and have encountered many different instruments, I know that THE most common reason that a student gives up on a stringed instrument is if it is poorly set-up. Upon ordering the ukes, we had them delivered to us so that I could go over them, make sure that they were properly constructed and setup prior to sending to her. My wife and I were searching for an inexpensive beginner's ukulele for a 5 year old girl to use for her first foray into music. Specifically I am a rock and metal player, but cull experience from nearly every genre of music. I have a lot of experience in the construction, setup, and playing of acoustic and electric stringed instruments. Let me just say that the differences between these two Ukuleles is truly like night and day… …for those of you who DIDN'T read my previous review, I will say that I've been a guitarist for over 25 years. The workmanship and quality control issues forced us returning it, and spending an additional $10 for the Kala Mahogany S oprano Ukulele. Unfortunately, with that particular uke, it arrived in very disappointing fashion. Previously I wrote a review regarding the Makala Shark Bridge Soprano Ukulele.
