" The pictures do not do justice to the level of craftsmanship. The instrument is outstanding. I have a few Ukes in my collection but not one of them sounds as crisp and clear as the Mya-Moe. Everything about this Ukulele puts it in a class of it's own. I look forward to improving my abilities as a Ukulele Player with this instrument guiding the way. Thank You to Everyone at Mya-Moe; you all have a true gift at creating the tools to discover music."
