• Great concert Uke...

  
  As reviewed by Tamara Ross on 12/29/2011

  Ordered this Ukelele for my son who plays the electric guitar, mostly metal type music and he loves it. The sound is great and the concert size is perfect! Love the tattoo design. Nicely built instrument.

• Fear the Uke

  Got this uke a couple of months ago after making the critical mistake of buying & returning one from Amazon. Here's my take: The Good: Stays in tune like a champ. The Luna people deserve high praise for making sure this uke holds tuning very well. Good job guys! Plays very easily. The fretting is great as is the finger board. You don't have to work hard to get a good sound. Again, well done Luna! It's easy on the eyes. I'm not one for cutesy designs but the design is not overly gaudy & besides, it's called the "Tattoo" so I guess it could've been worse. Good tone. This little uke has a surprisingly good sound. It's not the tinny Tiny Tim sounding uke of old. You gotta" love that. The Bad: Not much to say here, playas'. I suppose the one criticism I have is I would've liked to see the finish of this uke with a couple of coats of varnish. The finish is a little flat & who among us doesn't love a shiny uke? All in all, lovers of Uke, this is a great instrument at an awesome price. If you're thinkin' about rockin' the uke, you can't go wrong here. I've enjoyed the heck out of mine & it's made me take a look at the other Ukes in the Luna family.

• Sounds good, and a good value.

  I've had the Luna Tattoo Concert for a couple of months now, and I like it. In particular, the ukulele resonates well. The body of the uke is wider than most concert ukuleles and I think that it helps the low end sustain that I hear. The frets are accurately placed and are in tune at least for the first five frets where I normally play. For the first month or so I played it with the stock Aquila strings, but then switched to a set of brown Worth BM strings. I think the Worth strings made an improvement in the sound. The sound is mellower, and the strings are softer feeling and less "squeaky". The Luna Tattoo Concert isn't fancy. There's no binding or purling on the ukulele. It's little more than a lightweight plywood box, but it appears to be well made, and the "tattoo" pattern etched on the top give it a distinctive look. The silk screened logo on the headstock is kind of cheap looking, but it's a minor concern to me. It sounds good and is enjoyable to play. I think the Tattoo concert is a good value, especially since it also includes a lightly padded gig bag.
