It is pretty easy to drop a bundle on a quality uke. Any of the K brands or a Don Moore, Rick Turner or a Devine. I wish Taylor would make them available separately.

You forgot, ummm, letsee.... ( I know you weren't intending on a complete list..) Kevin Crossett- Kepasa ukes -though his are very reasonably priced. Dave Means- Glyph ukulele Dave Talsma Gary Ziminicki Mike Dasilva Tony Graziano Pete Hurney Owen Holt Ron Saul Augie and daughter Donna LoPrinzi Ken Potts John Kitakis Oh my, the list grows longer all the time. Those mentioned above is the short list, there's a whole lot more. And depending on your needs, all the prices are affordable, sometimes there's a wait, Dave Means of Glyph isn't taking any new orders. Glad I have one. All those uke makers above make a superior uke, I've played most of them, I think Taylor will fit in with the mix just fine. Uke players are looking for makers just to take the build seriously. As so many of us found in our younger days, the cheap ones were poorly built toys. No, they're not suppose to be. Even the old, respected makers had terrible intonation past the 3rd fret, which cemented a whole generation of musician's opinion on the uke. It's just a toy. The fellas mentioned above, and it's only a short list, do not hold that opinion. Hope Taylor is in that mix. |

So, given Taylor's reputation as far as fit and finish and intonation, I would seriously consider a Taylor uke if the tone and price were to my liking. Although, I have to buy my daughter a Kanile'a some day; how cool to have a ukulele named after you... |

Taylor ukelele
Hi I am new excited member because just recieved my taylor guitar and ukelele. I believe i have the only one in the uk to have it out of the 30 world wide. Was it worth the wait..........absolutely all koa guitar is as I expected .its gs model bigger than my koa concert bigger sound, very well balenced, crisp clear bass lovely fingerpickers guitar. The all koa taylor ukelele is the tenor so it accommodates my large fingers very well. Playing harmonics on such a small instrument is amazing. This is my first ukelele dont think I will ever need another!
