The 10 Best Beginner Ukuleles 2018

A short overview:

Even though beginners should begin with a Soprano, or even a Concert ukulele, we have a very special exception here – a high-quality Tenor uke from Ranch. Now, the brand’s name might not ring a bell to you, but we’ve already seen how underdogs strive to make a point by making better products in hopes of going toe to toe with the big guys (check the review of Aklot’s bundle above).

Essentially, this is the largest ukulele we’re having in for a review, but don’t let that dissuade you one bit. It boasts a tremendous value for the buck, and it’s safe to say that you’ll be more than happy with it once you get accustomed to its size.

First impressions:

The gig bag which housed this ukulele has shown signs of quality all over – the impeccable craftsmanship combined with a simple touch were more than enough to get our attention, but it was not until we’ve opened it that we were amazed with what it had in store. Ranch’s Tenor ukulele features exotic Sapele body and a neck made of premium-quality mahogany. Suffice to say, these materials provide incredibly warm, rich tone atop the lightweight qualities, making it absolutely perfect for beginners.

Even though bigger than most models we’ve had the pleasure of reviewing so far, this 26 inch uke does not appear as big as it sounds. It’s just three inches larger than a standard Soprano uke, so it’s safe to say that beginners won’t have too much trouble with it.

The hardware of Ranch’s Tenor uke features die-cast chrome tuners – they look pretty much the same when compared to guitar machine heads, and they perform a similar task. In essence, these tuning gears won’t let your strings go out of tune anytime soon, they’re pretty easy to use, and as far as intonation is at stake, you have nothing to worry about.

Lastly, we didn’t expect to see a set of Aquila super-nylgut strings on a model such as this, but we were positively surprised when we did.

All things considered, our first impressions of Ranch’s Tenor ukulele can’t be characterized without using superlatives – it’s one of the best beginner ukulele bundle packs out there, and we highly recommend that you try it out if you didn’t already.

rice:

Ranch’s Tenor ukulele is the priciest among the three in the series (the 21-inch Soprano costs the least, the 23-inch Concert being in the middle). Even though it doesn’t come cheap, we daresay its value is great, especially if we consider the fact that this ukulele belongs to the same price range as the models we’ve ran through above.

The gig bag, strap, tuner, and the Aquila Nylgut strings are all accounted for in the total pricing, which sums up some $10-$20 for the uke itself, which is actually quite affordable.

Quick rundown of the specs:

• Ranch Tenor Ukulele beginner bundle uke
• A chromatic tuner
• A set of Aquila Nylgut strings
• A uke strap
• A complementary gig bag
• Die-cast chromed tuners

Conclusion:

Ranch Tenor Ukulele performs wonderfully for an entry-level ukulele bundle. It’s a beautiful uke which boasts superb levels of playability and durability, and the features it comes outfitted with are quite amazing, to be frank. In fact, this is one of the Amazon’s Best-Selling ukuleles in the “Tenor” department, which comes pretty obvious, given that it doesn’t come with any apparent flaws while boasting a staggering amount of benefits you could reap if you choose it.

The only thing that might dissuade the aspiring beginners is its size – namely, Tenor ukes are not commonly used by immediate beginners, but should you get accustomed to it early on, there’s no stopping you at any later point.
