Lanikai Kohala Standard Ukulele
RatingsLanikai are known for their cheap ukes, but they've chosen the name Kohala for these uber-cheap ukes. In the price range, they're definitely a good option. But if you can, getting a Lanikai LU-11 Ukulele or LU-21 would be worth it.

It’s a great ukulele to “play” with as a toy, but I do recommend others for people who actually want to play a ukulele. It is something you would take on a trip to pass the time, but not present in front of an audience for example.
The chords do un pitch easily and need constant pitching, but it is a fun toy.
If you’re a serious uke player, this definitely isn’t the ukulele for you. If you’re a beginner, or just want to pass the time, then get this cheap thing.
My boyfriend really wants to learn ukelele. Our anniversary is next month, so, I went to 3 different music stores and spoke with people there and asked them which brand they would recommend for a beginner ukelele player, and all three of them said that Kohala is actually very good for a starter ukelele. However, two of the three of them also said that they would not recommend Kohala for someone who has already been playing the uke for a while.
I just ordered him one online last night. I hope I did okay. D:
