The BMG Uke • Antique Cherry

Rating:

Bought it for my granddaughter so here’s her review :

“It’s brilliant! I do already have a tenor, however I like the deeper tone of this Uke due to the larger body. I would have given it five stars, however the G and A string were a bit damaged (I assume which happened during transport since I’m all the way in Canada) which is not a huge deal since I was planning on changing the strings anyways. Other than that, it is my go-to ukulele now, and every one of my musician friends who see it are instantly impressed with its unique look (especially once I mention that it’s modelled after the Red Special).” - Kahshennoktha Deer

Hi,
My wife tells me this is my Christmas present, and I'm not allowed to look at it until then.

The boss has unpackaged it and says it looks lovely and, as she put it, "pinged" the strings and they made a sound similar to my other ukes.

So I assume it's all OK, you may have realised my wife has no musical know how or talent!! 😁 😂

Happy to give a proper revivew after Christmas 🤶 if that's OK?

After placing an order I received nothing for almost a week.

As it was a busy time of year I called the company and was told my order should have been dispatched a while back, but had not been sent. An immediate dispatch was organised and the order arrived the next day. Just a glitch in the system I guess but all dealt with and apologies given.

My autographed ukulele was actually delivered on my birthday!

It will take pride of place in my lounge room. It's a great little uke and the electronics are fabulous. There is a bit of a buzz on a couple of frets but this may be improved with a set of carbon fibre strings.

The staff at BMG have been terrific and I hope one day I may be able to purchase one of the BMG guitars.

Nice design and very playable.

First of all, my uke arrived from the UK to a town 300km from the nearest state capital in Australia within 9 days! Very impressed.

As the uke is a Xmas present I’ve only had a chance to check it all over, plug it in and have a brief play. It looks and feels really good! The sound was a bit mid biased but a quick fiddle with the EQ and all’s well. Sorry, this is only a ‘first impression’ review but the first impression is good.

This is a Christmas gift for my 14 yr old granddaughter, so I don’t know how she’ll like it.
I’ll let you know.

Thank you for your fine service.

I've had the BMG Uke for almost a year and it's now my main touring instrument along with my Avalon guitar. The tuner is an excellent addition and I find the overall size of body and frets perfect for both acoustic and plugged in shows.

It has a great resonant sound and looks awesome to boot!

It's already helped me write two new tunes for the next Track Dogs album...

What more could you ask for?

Very impressed with the service and speed of delivery.

Got this for my partner as she plays in a ukelele band. Very nice instrument, lovely tone. She was extremely impressed and immediately started more finger picking than on her other ukes.

I'm looking for a travel guitar and very tempted to try the one in your range.

Lovely quality - the tuner is a great help. Nice case too. Very happy with my purchase.

Yesterday I received my BMG Uke. Delivery took less than a week. That´ s why my X-Mas is so early this year! It came well packed in a case with strings and everything to play it right away. It was even (almost) tuned. So I started to play - and enjoyed! Sounds great, looks great, plays fine, enlightens me - one big star extra on top of the five! Thanks a lot! I will come back.

I bought my BMG Uke about 9 months ago now and have finally learned to play some bits on it.

It gives a surprisingly good sound for such a small instrument, especially plugged in. the construction quality is great along with the sound.

A great companion for my BMG Super and Rhapsody.

Thanks to all at House/BMG.

This is a little gem. I have recorded with it DI'd and also mic'ed, on separate occasions... both sounded great. Lots of presence, without even trying to EQ.

It's a far cry from my plastic Tommy Steel uke my dad bought me in 1957!

I've had mine since early February 2015.

The BM Uke is well made and sounds great. It is a little quiet, acoustically, but the Fishman KULA under saddle pick-up system sounds great when amplified.

I have suggested adding fret markers along the edge of the neck. But I am not in favour of fret markers on the fretboard as I think that, if they were included, they should follow the RS fret marker pattern which on this smaller neck would look over-crowded. Also, the use of a marker on the 10th fret (à la uke) rather than the 9th fret (à la guitar) would not match the RS anyway.

I have a Kala solid mahogany uke but, although this is laminated, this is a great instrument and is now my main gigging uke.
