Tiger UKE7-BL Soprano Ukulele - Ideal for Beginners and Schools – Includes Gig Bag, Felt Pick, Spare Strings now with Aquila Strings - Blue

I bought one of these little cuties about fifteen months ago somewhat on a whim. I had a credit to use up and it just caught my eye while browsing. However I have no regrets at all. I had assumed the uke would be made of plastic and was pleasantly surprised when it arrived to find actual wood under the shiny black paint. (I should point out at the time I purchased the uke had no name, did not come with the bag and was even cheaper than now).The nylon strings did lose tuning quite quickly but that is to be expected when new and they did settle down. The tuning pegs are really very good considering the price of the instrument. Smooth and easy to turn and absolutely no slippage at all. To my ears it sounds pretty much as I expect a uke to sound, nice and bright and quite surprisingly loud. If, like me, you want to play around with learning a musical instrument but, like me, you don't have much room or money, this is a great place to start. Fingering the chords is just so easy to do compared to a guitar and you will find the little pads building up on the ends of your fingers after just a few days. Even better, there are a wealth of helpful websites where you can pick up playing tips and learn songs for no cost outside of your broadband bill. Two I have personally found really good are [...] which has video tutorials on strumming patterns and finger picking techniques, all really well done and easy to follow, and a Dutch site called [...]This is obviously a real labour of love for whoever put it together. It has a list of songs, graded 1-4 for difficulty, featuring a video, lyrics, a real-time guide for chord changes and the chord charts for each song. There is also a set of digital pitch pipes for tuning and instant transposition for different ukulele tunings. A huge Chapeau to whoever put it together. I may not have got much further than strumming along to Three Little Birds, but I am enjoying it immensely and that is the point. PS DISCLAIMER. I am in no way associated with the people who own or run the websites mentioned.

For people who complain about this going out of tune very quickly... Well, I'm afraid that's just what happens with stringed instruments (especially Ukuleles!), so I highly recommend ordering a clip-on tuner. It couldn't keep tune for more than a few seconds at first, but after a few days of using it I've found that the tuning stays for much longer now. Now I've got that out of the way, I have to stay this is a fantastic little Uke. For it's price, it's amazing. I was expecting something fairly shoddy, perhaps bad sound quality, but it functions perfectly. It's not often I give five stars, but this is really good. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to start out learning the Uke: if you lose interest, it won't be a major financial loss, either. Under the black paint, it is real wood, which is also a nice bonus. It is extremely light but sturdy, too. I took the carrying case for a spin to the beach and it fared the two-mile-long two way journey fine. One, very small, problem: there's an odd kind of splattering of white paint that looks like dust on the sides of the Uke... Bugs me slight, but it doesn't really matter. All in all, great! Just remember, as with any instrument that requires tuning, get a tuner for it. Some fiddling is required when it arrives, as not all the strings may be already tuned.

This was the first instrument I ever bought for myself as a fun way to stop spending so much time on my phone and other forms of technology. The price of the product should not put you off because it is a very good introduction to musical instruments. The Ukulele is very easy to get the hang of and learn a variety of different songs on even if you have absolutely no musical experience whatsoever. This Ukulele inparticular is very good for a beginner because it boasts a great design which makes it cheap and affordable so for once you're not forced to splash the cash to get musical. It comes with its own carry case as well featuring the brand logo on it. I can safely say I can trust this brand now as they have been very reliable for me over past purchases. However. If you are NOT a beginner on the Uke the one thing that may be appealing for you with this one is its union jack design otherwise it does have some drawbacks. The size of the product is irregualr for what what it is, making it a smaller edition of the Ukulele family making it challenging to play those harder complicated notes. This is especially fustrating for someone like me as I have quite big hands so trying to get them in the right positions to play certain notes can become especially challenging. Although the strings are of a very high quality meaning that they become easy to strum after practice and produce a good sound as well. Overall I would highly rate this Uke for beginners as it's cheap and eyecatching where as for more experienced Uke players I would say you are buying because of its look and not the playing capability. Have a nice day. J ***Sidenote***** I purchased the Union Jack Tiger Ukulele

This ukulele looks really nice; the paint job is great - looks really funky :) The price is great as I didn't want anything too expensive cause I'll just be teaching myself; I might do what I did with my guitar, which is considerably up the price for a new one once my playing is much better. You do get what you pay for. SERIOUS WARNING however; when ordering this, you might as well buy new strings at the same time. They are awful; I know many others have said that it goes out of tune after one song, but personally I can't even manage that. I'm no ukulele expert but, judging from what I know about guitars, a new set of strings will do the trick. As for the bag, obviously I haven't had it for very long to judge properly, but it seems pretty tough although it hasn't got any padding. A fun, cheap ukulele, would recommend for beginners.

A ver, que no hago más que leer opiniones chungas sobre que si el ukelele se desafina, que si no suena muy bien, que si para principiantes que si bla bla bla. El producto es cojonudo en relación calidad precio. Suena muy bien. Me imagino que si eres un experto músico y te dedicas a tocar el ukelele de manera profesional, no te vas a comprar uno de 34 €. Yo me lo he comprado para aprender y la verdad es que está genial. El acabado es bastante bueno, y las cuerdas son resistentes. Además te vienen un juego de cuerdas aparte. El instrumento se desafina más al principio que cuando ya lo llevas usando unos días, pero no hay que echarse las manos a la cabeza, te puedes bajar un afinador en el móvil y afinar tu ukelele en cosa de 15 segundos. Y luego a poco que te pongas con YouTube con algunos tutoriales, aprendes rápidamente a tocar acordes básicos que te permitan tocar canciones y básicamente pasártelo bien. La funditas que te trae es simplemente una bolsa de tela para transportarlo. En las opiniones también puedes leer que hay gente que se queja de que la funda no es más robusta.Como digo es solamente una bolsa de transporte, si quieres tirar tu ukelele por un precipicio tendrás que comprarle una caja más resistente.Si solamente lo quieres llevar de tu casa a la de tus colegas o a la playa o a donde te de la gana para tocar un rato es más que suficiente. También he llegado a leer que suena un poco bajo de volumen. Suena muy bien, a un volumen más que adecuado.Evidentemente la caja de resonancia es pequeña, si no tendrías entre manos una guitarra y no un ukelele. Muy contento con la compra. El mío es negro y es muy bonito. Por lo que cuesta, más que suficiente.

suis un habitué de la marque Tiger qui produit des guitares de bonne qualité à petit prix pour la première fois pour cette marque de guitares, ce petit ukulélé présente deux petits défauts: - les bords des frettes un peu agressives ont nécessité un petit ponçage -la frette 4, trop haute faisait friser la première corde, un ponçage a été nécessaire. petits défauts faciles a résoudre. sinon, beau ukulélé, bien fini, manche agréable, belle sonorité je laisse 5 Etoiles,
