the mahalo is a surprisngly fine cheap uke. it intonates well all the way up the neck and with a set of aquila nylgut strings sounds quite sweet. i give away one a month on my radio show. i give away the color ukes. the natural wood ones seem ok, too. i had 80 of them last sept that we gave away to kids at the uke expo.

btw, you live in the same state as one of the finest uke makers in the country. when you do decide to upgrade, google "glyph ukulele" and contact dave means. tell him i said aloha

and the flea is a fine instrument but not in the same price range as the mahalo. try the Trimuph uke http://www.empire-music.com/US/English/Catalogue.cfm?ProductID=TR400 at $43 incl s/h it's the best buy out there, imabho.
