    I knnow I'm a few years late in giving this review but I enjoyed the looks, size, and most of all sound of the Snail BHC - 6T the most....

    This was great, Alex! I love seeing and hearing all the beautiful high end ones, but this is more what I might actually be able to buy right now LOL...so I appreciate the video a lot. I have the Islander...have given it to my Dad though, so am lacking a tenor to play around with. I liked a few of these, will go back and listen again. The last two Snails were nice...I surprised myself by preferring the sound of the 6T over the 5T...that was unexpected. Thanks again!

    Alex, thank you so much for doing this for us. I know how much hard work goes into doing these types of videos. Very time consuming. I think all those Ukes are great at their price point. For me personally .. loved the sound of the Kai KTI-5000. Thanks again.

    My two choices Kai 700 purchased waiting for arrival. Will see how it goes then add the Kai 100M. Solid cedar tops are maybe not as stunning looking as the fancy Acacia but solid cedar has a place with those that love cedar classical guitar tops.

    I like the kala bmb & Uma baby tennor. The KTI 5000 is a beaut but have the concert version, so would probably go for something with different characteristics. Very hard to choose between the ukes, in this selection. 👏

    Really nice video and selection. I know that it is probably harder to come by, but couldn't the Millar TM 260 be on this list too ? It is just under 300£ and sounds and feels really nice. Maybe it lacks some blings to catch the eyes of a beginner, but what it does not put into decoration, it went into the sound !

    I've got the Kai- KT30, all laminate mango which I love to bits so my natural choice would be the Kai-KTI-5000. I'm a classical guitar player so would a uke to end all purchases be the Kai KTI-5000 or an Anuenue AMM3? Thank you for any replies.

  • @SouthernUkuleleStore

    3 жыл бұрын

    The AnueNue is twice the price so it's unfair to directly compare them. The Kai stands out if you are spending £300 but what you get for £400-800 is quite a step up.
