Review: Good ukulele, pricey, not perfect, but it has a great sound and charm! - A very nice ukulele. It feels premium and has excellent features with a long lasting battery. The strings are a real highlight. They are some of the best strings I’ve played on in a long while. They hold tune for a long time and coupled with the manufacturing (very smooth fretboard with a slight radius and great feeling tuners) they just feel great and are very bright. The effects module is very responsive and produces great sound. The body resonates very well and does a great job projecting despite the small sound hole. This thing feels great and has a great thickness profile. But now for what I don’t like: the price. It’s a great ukulele but at the price it feels more like a fashion accessory or a show piece... even though the case is awesome. I would like the delay/chorus switch to be added on the exterior of the body. Having to reach inside kinda takes away from the possible blends you can make and reduces some of the ease of playing. In addition, the action is great up until the 10th fret where it grows very thin almost tin-like. I think it would benefit from interchangeable bridges and nuts. While not a perfect solution- I think it would be a good stopgap until something like a truss rod would be possible. Maybe a slight angle to the headstock could even out the action across the board if used in conjunction with different bridges and nuts. (A staggered bridge would be amazing as well). Lastly, at the price range for the what you get- I feel another $100 is absurd for a strap and charging cable. We’re getting into Apple territory with the “high end accessories”. All aside it looks great, and plays pretty well. It even sounds great when fed through pedal effects. If this is your first or second uke- pass on it until some upgrades are made. If you want a fun little uke to play with your friends, are able to splurge a little, and have some experience then it is an excellent piece to add to your collection and a great conversation starter.
Review: Lava U is a great company!!! This is a wonderful instrument!!! - Lava U has warehouse space at desertcart. So desertcart filled the first order. My first Ukulele didn't work the way it was supposed to. So this lovely company stayed in touch with me the whole time and was willing to do everything to make the sale right. After discussing between Lava U and desertcart, it was decided that a new instrument needed to be sent to me. So that's what they did. This Tenor Lava U is perfect. Everything works well on it and it's fun to play. As soon as I can I'm going to order the special Ukulele strap for it and the electric pickup. They have a kit that includes 3 specialized picks to assist with different play forms and sounds. But I don't use picks when I play. I have a lot to learn so maybe at some point I will do that. It's a nice kit. If you want the set, I'd encourage you to get it. This is a lovely instrument and this company is wonderful to do business with. I'm thinking about ordering the guitar from them whenever I can. More playing reviews need to be featured on the Ukulele because everyone I watched just sat and talked about it mostly. People need to see how well this Ukulele really works. So I hope that a professional will make some youtubes on this beautiful instrument. It has a very nice sound to it compared to my Makala Concert C, which was my very first Ukulele. Most professional wood Ukuleles that cost more, in the local music stores in my area, don't usually have the beautiful sound that my Makala has. The Makala was purchased from a professional performer, collector, teacher, and music business owner from Hawaii eleven years ago. So this Lava U Tenor Ukulele has a beautiful comparable tone. I'm very, very pleased with this instrument and it's well worth the price. This Tenor Ukulele has electronic features that you can use in performances. You can connect it to an amplifier or not as you choose. Whatever your playing capabilities or style, you can definitely show them off with this Ukulele. Thank you very much Lava U. :)

## Features

- Enrich Your Tone: We invented an all-new soundboard structure featuring up to 142 multi-shaped bionic units. Created with mechanical simulations and algorithms, they make the LAVA U soundboard vibrate in a far more organic way, producing a full, balanced tone.
- Play with Effects Plugged or Unplugged: The L2 mini preamp with FreeBoost technology enables you to play with superior sounds and get creative with sounds using effects like Reverb, Delay, and Chorus with or without plugging in.
- Works Great in All Conditions: With our patented AirSonic carbon fiber composite, LAVA U withstands temperatures from -4°F to 140°F and humidity from 10% to 90%, so now you can bring your LAVA U anywhere — hot deserts, polar zones, and more.
- Enjoyable Playing Experience: We refined the manufacturing of the neck and fretboard, CNC machining every fret for a easy-to-press radius. Featuring an ultra-stiff carbon fiber rod inside, the guitar neck also comes with improved stability and sound.
- Space Case: Built with high-ductility materials, the Space Case provides superior protection. Its transparent space-age design with simplicity and elegance matches your every style and music.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use a variety of strings, wound, florcarbon, nylon, depending on what you like?**
A: Hey there. We suggest you use nylon strings for a better tone, and they're perfectly fit with our LAVA U. If you change the nylon strings to other strings, It will produce a bigger tension on the top of the LAVA U. So we generally do not recommend customers to change.

**Q: What are the box dimensions and weight?**
A: The 31 x 13.5 x 7.5 dimensions are for the 23" concert Lava

**Q: What is the difference between carbon fiber ukulele and wooden ukulele?**
A: Carbon fiber materials are more stable than wood, so there is no need to worry about temperature and humidity, and the acoustic performance is better than wood.

**Q: Is it steel string or nylon string?**
A: Nylon strings. Thank

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Travel Ukulele! The Apple of Ukuleles
*by Z***B on February 22, 2020*

This is the Apple of electro ukuleles. - The build quality is top notch. - The built-in effects sound great, either acoustic or plugged into an amp. - The strings were decent, but I changed them to Uke Logic hard tension clear. - The sound is good, not great, and not as loud as a solid wood ukulele, or a solid top, laminate back/side. I highly recommend this ukulele, however the price is kind of high. I still have to say that it is worth the price, given the materials, design, and craftsmanship. This will make an outstanding travel ukulele.
