Gretsch G9110 Std. Concert Ukulele

I had ordered the soprano model but decided I might be a bit fat-fingered. Also, the pictures showed the older one with peg tuners (updated since) but a quick email to Thomann confirmed it came with geared tuners. Arrived well set up and gig-bag is a bonus. I learned 'When I'm 64' by the Beatles first and won't be turning back :)

I bought this as a gift for someone who had never touched an uke before. I must say even in their still inexperienced hands it sounds great. It has a warm sound and is surprisingly loud. The only weak point are the tuning pegs, while I don’t mind them being open tuners because of the weight reduction, I hate that they cheaped out on the pegs and made them out of plastic. Probably not a big deal for most, but I would have preferred better quality ones.
Overall though, I’d say it’s a great instrument for anybody that wants a good uke without breaking the bank.
