5- http://www.theukulelesite.com/ukulelemarket/lanikai-lu21ce-concert-ukulele-w-pickupcase-setup
These are the ones i have in mind. But if there are other ukuleles at a good affordable price, feel free to recommend!
Thanks so much in advance!!
I kinda want one with a pickup, (electric/ acoustic). If there are good ukuleles with a pick up, please recommend also!
I will select a solid-top anytime over a laminated top, the back and side woods could be laminated but the top should be solid wood.
Both brands mentioned,Lanakai (a Hohner Company), and Kala have good reputations within the Ukulele community as making good afordable instruments.
Unless you are playing as part of a band and/or at a large audience I don't think that electronics attachments will be necessary.The extra cost due to electronics can be used to buy a better solid top or an all solid instrument, but this will be a matter of personal preference.
Other brands that are selling well is the Ohana and Fluke and they are also available in solid tops for under $200.
Spruce tops are favorite due to the wood tendency to get better sound-wise with age. Cedar and mahogany tops tend to bring out a darker tone and are also well received by some players that like that feature.
The market place is so full of good Ukuleles under $200. that you don't have to go over that figure (unless you are in the professional level of play) to get a good sounding solid top instrument.
Good Luck, I am sure that you will enjoy whatever instrument you pick.
