The Kala Learn to Play Starter Kit is a smart value for the aspiring ukulele student or self-starter. At its heart is a well-playing soprano ukulele built from industry-standard tonewoods: a rich mahogany body and neck and an articulate walnut fingerboard. An advanced nut and saddle by aftermarket guitar-parts leader GraphTech enhance this instrument's tone and sustain, while a set of Italian-made synthetic gut Aquila Supernylgut strings impart projection and tonal characteristics you'd never expect at this price point. You also get Kala's Quick Start guide as a springboard and Kala's own Learn to Play online lessons for deeper diving into chord formations and playing technique. Includes a tote for storage and transport.
