Expert Score

9.5
  • Provides a high quality instrument at a very affordable price
  • The No-Tie bridge makes it very easy for beginners to learn how to restring a ukulele
  • This ukulele is priced right by being under $100- it is not prime wood cuts and is not going to be flawless

Overview

The small Soprano body is perfect for beginners but also great for anyone that wants the standard sized ukulele. 

Critic Consensus

The Fender Seaside Soprano Ukulele is easy to play and extremely portable, so we’re comparing with the best ukulele for beginners.  This model is made to blend the surfer vibe of Southern California with the traditional Hawaiin Ukulele and can be researched amongst the best ukuleles.

Features:

  • Soprano Ukulele
  • Mahogany top, back, and sides
  • No-tie bridge
  • Traditional ukulele headstock
  • Open-Pore Satin finish
  • Bell-like tone
  • Slim C-shaped neck

The Mahogany body is warm for the soprano size and the No-Tie Bridge makes it easy for even beginners to change the strings. The Mahogony gives the ukulele a gorgeous aesthetic overall just like the guitar in our Gretsch G9220 review. The classic look with the iconic Fender headstock is well built and this ukulele looks great. If you’re a fan of these smaller stringed instruments, be sure to check out smaller acoustic guitars as well, like the one in our Yamaha JR1 review. Though Fender is a great and dependable brand of instruments, it’d be wise to compare it to another brand so you have eyes on all the instruments on the market today, like Gibson vs Fender.
