Well, I’ve recently started carrying more ukuleles in my shop in western Massachusetts and am contemplating ordering some of the aNueNue instruments. I Stayed up until 3 in the morning the other night contacting every ukulele maker on this site and set up dealerships with Kanile’a, Big Island, aNueNue, KoAloha, Melokia and others. I plan on getting some of the Papa and Lani aNueNue ukes in. I like hearing from your review that the construction is really nice, a little concerned the laminate wood will sound flat..any opinions and input on these and other ukes is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Glenn

Bob: The Lani in this article is a model (of aNueNue) the Lani you’re talking about is the brand. I haven’t tried any of their ukes.

Thank you for this report. any information to help a beginer is welcomed, however you say you tested a cheaper model ($278)I am going to look at two on Friday in Nuneatonwho have the Lani LS-50 at £39.00 and a LS70 at £60 british pounds now these are much cheaper than the one you tested, both would come in well under $100. what would your oppinion be for these two models? and did you find out where they were based. once again many thanks for your most informative test.
I hope you will be able to reply to my questions.
regards

royce: I’m not 100% sure where they’re made. But I’m 100% sure it’s not in the US. If you’re looking for US made, go with one of the higher end Hawaiian makers like KoAloha.

Hi, great site..

Do you know where the aNueNue Lani II is made?

I am looking for a good acoustic / electric ukulele, trying to find something not made in China and preferably made in the USA. Any suggestions?

Best wishes,
Royce Hood

I’m glad to hear that. I did like the one I owned; until the problem…

Jerry: My aNueNue is still in fine fettle. No bridge problems.

Well, i disagree with the reviewer; there was a compromise on the quality. I bought this ukulele, based somewhat on this recommendation. But, the bridge was slowly separating from the body. After a month or so, i could slide a piece of paper between the bridge and the body. I returned it. Despite all the claims of quality, I couldn’t find any guarantee from the manufacturer?
Other than that fatal flaw, and maybe it was an aberration, the ukulele was nice. I liked the rest of it…
