Good for experimenting, but that?s all

CSF 02.04.2018

I had a feeling that this kit is simply a box filled random parts failed on quality control.

The neck and body had pre-drilled holes for alignment, but the neck was almost 4 mm off center. I had to cut the dowels, drill new holes and align the body and neck properly. The body is made with metal clamps and at some places the lining does not even touch the sides!

The fretboard is made from thermally modified wood and the material is very brittle. It was also badly warped. Probably that?s why it was uneven on the sides and almost 2 mm too narrow at the top. I had to use some leftover veneer from other projects to build up the missing part. However, since this is a finished fretboard, the frets are still 2 mm narrow at the nut.

The bridge is made from the same brittle wood. The holes for the strings are pre-drilled, but the strange spacing is uneven. The spacing two high strings is 3 mm(!) more then between the two low strings. The bridge location described in the instructions is completely wrong, you should measure it yourself properly, based on the scale length.

Conclusion - yes, it is possible to build a working ukulele from this kit, but you have to be familiar to the basics of guitar making. Maybe I simply got a wrong package, but the quality of mine was close to unacceptable. Thomann should either remove this kit from the shop, or design a better quality kit and raise the price with 5 euros or so. I bet this kit ends up in the trash bin in most of cases.

You get what you pay for...

Customa 23.04.2020

Cheap instrument (i was aware of that before buy) that would leave more satisfied if the following were better.
1. Holes and dowels for mounting the neck to the body have a play.
2. Fretboard narrower than the neck. I was also expecting better quality for the fretboard and frets.
3. The body came with predrilled holes for mounting the bridge in a way that the bridge was not parallel to the nut.
4. The instructions for mounting the nut were a bit confusing since the line/point that separate the neck from headstock was diagonal.

The whole experience could be better with better quality control of the individual parts.

All in all, if you are looking for a cheap uke just buy a finished one.
If you are looking forward to the assembly, while being aware of the actual quality, then go ahead and buy

Build it, play it!

Anonym 03.07.2022

I bought this kit for my young daughter. She has watched me build multiple guitars, and she is at an age now where I think she can start joining in on building instruments. A kit like this is perfect for anyone to start out with. Age doesn’t matter because you always want to start simple, and build up.

Pros:
1) price
2) at the end of the day, you’ll have a playable instrument
3) fun

The cons with my purchase
1) fretboard needed to be a bit wider

2) within a month, the string tension busted the wood where the bridge was. The glue didn’t come undone, the wood actually broke.

Having that happen briefly broke my daughters heart…but thankfully, her dad (me!) came to the rescue with some strong titebond wood glue, and some extra (reinforcement) wood to fix the problem.

Anyway…the guitar is now a beast. It’s strong and solid, and be of that, it sounds good. This is executed a kit like this is perfect for a beginning builder. If there isn’t any problems…great. If there is some problems…then for the price of the kit, it’s worth trying to fix and get more experience on.
