I was looking for a guitalele and first ordered another brand for considerably more $$. Not impressed, returned it. Next got this instrument in Acacia wood, sound not exactly what I wanted. Sent it back, ordered this one. It appears to be well made, nicely finished. Mahogany is an improvement. Not impressed with the strings and I ordered some different ones. Action too high, but that's usually true for me for any guitar I buy, so I'll have it set up. I have hopes for this one, we'll see. After the setup, I may write another review.5 MONTHS LATER FOLLOW UP:Changed review to five stars, would give it six if I could. After experimenting with several different strings - none of which I much liked - I decided to try Nashville tuning and EUREKA !!!!!!!!!! I absolutely LOVE this thing. It sounds wonderful, sustain is incredible. I had the action lowered and am going back to my luthier and have him shave the bridge a bit more for easier action on the higher frets. I wouldn't even consider buying another brand uke now. I cherish both this one and my Caramel mahogany CUB402 bass uke. The only way it could be better would be to have a narrower, Telecaster C type neck.

This guitarele was better then I had expected!The sound is beautiful and the finish is excellent.The leaflet shows the truss rod in the sound hole but thanks to some lovely peeps here who answered my question it is actually behind a little plate on the head stock.Comes with everything you need to literally inbox and play.I would definitely recommendUpdate, the timers started to unscrew in the back and fall out so had to return it, I was gutted as the sound was gorgeous.

I am very impressed thus far as to whether this is a beginners instrument I can't say that without some caveats. The instrument needed adjustments right away and what is nice is that it is easily adjusted. I thought the stings on it were adequate but a little tubby sounding. If you did not guess already I am using guitar tuning. I opted for a mix of D'Addario Requinto's which are a bit light. I opted to use the Clear Nylon: .022, .028, .033, and the Silver-plated Copper: .030 as the 4th string. For the last two lower string I used the D'Addario Pro-Arte Flamencos .Silver Wound .035 A and .044 ENext time I will go straight to custom set as this gave me a very nice bright and lively tone over all, very piano like even on a small body like this.The quality of the manufacture is very good for it's inexpensive price but it did require some effort and extra expenditure to get it where I wanted it to. I have not tried it plugged in as that is not what I wanted anyway.Feel safe to buy one and experiment with to get what you want out of it

Had this for a couple years, I probably pick this up more often than my actual guitars!First the good!Very small and versatile, has a built-in tuner and everything as well. The accessories that came with are pretty nice, they’re the kind of things that are annoying to have to buy separately. I personally didn’t need most of them, but for a beginner they’re really convenient to have. I personally tune it 3 semi-tones up, as I find the strings way too floppy at guitar standard. The truss rod helps correct the added tension. All in all just really enjoyable to play.Now the bad.Following is based on the specific unit I received, might’ve been a defective one, but…Gonna be completely honest, the build quality is bad. The intonation is off. When open strings are in tune certain fretted notes are obviously slightly out. The material used is ikea quality, extremely easily dented. Imagine a $50 ukulele, that’s the quality you can expect. The mark at 10th fret makes no sense to me whatsoever, not like it’s a guitalele tuned 5 semi-tones up. If the materials used were higher quality I would consider throwing steel strings on. At the end of the day, it feels like a toy; but I honestly don’t mind.Conclusion:Despite the cons, I 100% would recommend anyone pick this thing up, my personal experiences were very positive overall!

Bought this guitarele for strumming in my work truck, was surprised at how good it sounded and how sturdy it feels. You got a customer for life and I can't wait to order my uke next.

I needed a really small guitar to use while in my recliner... health issues keep me there more than I like...Found this beautiful little 'baby guitar' and started reading, listening and doing research in general on the guitalele. I am very pleased with this sweet little Caramel! (Pun intended!)This is all solid mahogany... no laminate construction. The entire body vibrates when I strum! Walnut bridge and frette board, open black tuning pegs, with brass gears. There are two well placed strap pins, also.Soft satin type finish - you can actually see and feel the pores in the mahogany. No high gloss... No trim around/on the edges, so you can see the thickness (thinness) of the top attached to the side. The bottom meets the side with a beveled seam - very neat in appearance... No glue drips, or rough edges, just a nice neat little guitalele, well made... and beautiful!It has tuning pegs and bridge pins like a steel string acoustic guitar, but it's made for nylon strings. And has beautiful, full, rich sound with great resonance, sustain and big volume! A bigger voice than you'd expect from something this small!I adjusted the truss rod, when I first got it and was setting it up. It's a real truss rod and did alter the neck, slightly.When I tried to use the tuner, for the first time, it wouldn't work. I couldn't get the battety compartment open, either! Had to very carefully use a tiny little pair of pliers to get it open. Checked the batteries... they were fine. Finally found the little bitty on / off button kind of hidden among the other buttons/knobs. Worked just fine once I got it turned on! Lol!I've had my 'baby guitar' for a full week, this evening - 8/16/21. I've played her so much and the more I play, the more I love her. I changed strings, the end of last week. Used D'Addario ball end, nylon folk regular guitar strings. Now that the strings have settled in, she stays in tune pretty well, so I don't need to do more than a few minor adjustments when I start playing.Just messing around, using my chromatic tuner, I tuned to 432 instead of 440. I like it! Is slightly lower in tone and sounds a bit closer to my guitar.Where I strum does make a difference in tone. Using more the softer side of my thumb, right about where the neck and the sound hole meet is where I discovered the most mellow tone.This is just a great little guitalele (aka baby guitar). I'm so very glad I bought it!

The package came complete with all items and was well protected. The size is between a guitelele and a 1/4 classical guitar. It is well made, no excess glue, no sharp frets, no buzz, no damage. Both the tuner and pickup work well and the instrument is loud enough that no amp is needed unless you're playing in a band or with some full-sized guitars that like to show how big they are. It took me less than 3 minutes to tune it and it kept the tuning for at least 20 mins which is rather good for new strings. I am using this to transition from concert uke to steel string as my fingers are getting ripped up by the steel, so the nylon feels rather soothing. I have small hands and fingers so this size is perfect enough to finally learn to play the full F-chord and actually reach it. The only detractor is that it did not come with strap-pegs installed, so I will need to take it down to the guitar store to get them installed because I really like using a guitar strap to keep things steady. I was very impressed with the sound which is fairly close to my larger classical guitar and all the songs I learned on my concert uke play fine on it. I think that others going from a uke to a guitar, or someone coming from a guitar wanting to play a uke that have very small to small/medium fingers/hands would find this a great transition instrument. I am pleased with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone who wants to play guitar/uke at an affordable price.

First of all the bundle you get with this little guitar is fantastic; 2 sets of string, capo, good bag, hanging hook, strap, plectrums and cable. Secondly, the built in electronics is great - the controls and connection to an amp works very well and the built in tuner is just brilliant.This guitalele has a pretty good sound for its size. You may want to upgrade the strings it comes with. I did that and found volume and quality were greatly improved.It has a very nice action. I certainly won't be adjusting the neck tension. I was worried that the neck might be too small as I have quite large hands but that isn't the case at all. It's very easy to use.So far I just love this little instrument. It's great fun to pick up something so small and knock out such great sounds. So far I don't have any reservations about the Caramel at all and would be happy to recommend it to anyone.
