A genuinely amazing uke for performers and recording artists. It leaves the audience speechless each time I perform. I bought it from amazon and IDK how bajaao sells it at far less than its actual worth. Alvarez is an iconic brand, especially for ukuleles, and they built it with premium quality components. It comes with great strings and packs a studio worthy pickup. I have been using it for almost a year now and I have nothing but praise for this beautiful instrument.
