Concert Ukeleles
There are four common types of ukes out there: soprano, concert, tenor, and baritone. The soprano was the original, followed up quickly with the concert size uke. The 15-inch scale length and slightly larger body size deliver a deeper tone and a bit more volume, while maintaining the sweetness and instantly recognizable ukulele sound.

The Lanikai LU Series
Lanikai's most popular and affordable models, the LU series features classic designs and beautiful wood, with plenty of attention to detail. All LU series ukuleles include an instruction booklet to guide you with these easy to learn instruments.

Nato Top, Back, and Sides
Nato, often referred to as "Eastern Mahogany," delivers wonderful playablility and tone without an accompanying high price tag. Used with Ukeleles, it provides a nice, pronounced mid-range with a mellow high-end.

White Binding
The body of the LU-21C features white binding, for a nice contrast/framing of the red-tinted finish, and an all-around beautiful instrument.

Rosewood Fretboard
Just as with guitars, rosewood makes an ideal fretboard tone wood for ukes.

Die-Cast Tuners
Lanikai's die-cast tuning machines provide solid tuning, so strum away confidently.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great instrument for the price, January 31, 2010


This review is from: Lanikai LU-21C Concert Ukulele (Electronics)

I went to an OMEA convention and went to a vendor stand with a variety of Ukulele and the best one there was the Lanikai S-C. I wanted to save some money so I decided to go with the LU-21C. It's the same quality of build, but has a mahogany plywood top instead of a spruce top. This means that it lacks some higher overtones (it's warmer, darker, what ever you want to say.) I've played many crappy instruments for around this price range and bellow and this one is not a crappy instrument. The only thing that needed some set up was the nut, but that is a common problem and a quick fix on most low end guitars and ukes. Most manufacturers ship such instruments out with a high nut. Are you not sure you want a ukulele? Get this one to find out.

Got this as a replacement for a older Uke, and am very satisfied with my purchase. Sounds great and comes with high quality strings. Would definitely recommend this product to a friend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lanikai Concert Ukelele, January 2, 2011


Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Lanikai LU-21C Concert Ukulele (Electronics)

Beautiful instrument, just as advertised. Gave it to my son as a gift, he really likes it. Well constructed and finished. Nice tone. Highly recommend this if you want a quality uke, with a tone a big cut above the standard soprano instrument.
