I was thinking of getting a Donner Concert ukulele, so this review is really helpful. The price is right for me, but the one I am looking at on Amazon did not have the fancy laser cut out.
My husband feels it's pronounce like the reindeer. I did ordered this ukulele and it's a 23 inch! It should come by the end of the week and I'll let you know how It works out.
For those of us not in the know, what is PR? Public Relations? Product Review? Personal Review? Bottom line, does the manufacturer send you free merch in exchange for a review?
Good question. It is Public Relations. They do send it to me, after asking if I would like to receive one, with the only stipulation that I do a review and share some photos on my social media. There is no pressure to give a good review, and no suggestion of a future deal.
i need to know if you have to PRESS HARD on the strings to make the sound good because the last uke i had was like that (I had to press REALLY REALLY hard)
The dynamic is called "ACTION." Take to music store & ask them to fix the action on either the bridge or the nut... There is a suggested measurement for good action but i don't know it off the top of my head. It's an easy fix on less expensive 'ukuleles... CharLee @Ragamuffin_Ukes
Hey Lisa, there are numerous reasons i enjoyed watching this video. One of which is i learned a new medical term. Now considering that this is a review of an instrument... that seems quite humorous. Actually it is sending chills up and down my left humerus as i am typing this out... 😅
Funny!!! It is one of my favorite shirts. So many people comment on it when I go grocery shopping in it. $6 shirts online - they have quite a few funny ones.
Use volume meters before posting your videos please. The audio is too low. You can pronounce Donner like Santa's reindeer. Also, like the famous group of people who became cannibals when they were starving known as the "Donner Party". Thanks for your review. I have the DUT-4E Tenor and I'm very impressed with the quality/price.
I checked this video on 3 devices - my desktop, my tablet and my Fire TV. The volume was fine using my normal volume setting, might be the controls on your device?? Funny - the Donner party!!!!! I am glad you liked the review.
@@TheUkuleleFool Suggest using meters in your video editing software. It's not ridiculously low. Just have to turn it up a bit compared to most videos edited with levels set correctly.
I love the way you go through explaining the unboxing of this ukulele! Thank you
Glad you like it!
@@TheUkuleleFoolI have just ordered my Donner DUC-200 for my 43rd Birthday for the 19th of December.
@@MrET114 Yeah!!!!
@@TheUkuleleFool Thanks, it's coming today from Walmart but I won't be able to open it until the 19th of December.
The uke I use at work is a Donner Soprano. It’s a great little uke!
"i subscribed" this series has changed how i will be playing the uk

Glad it was helpful!

Looking at it again it does have a laser cut out, but a different kind.
I did find the same exact one!
Yeah! Look forward to seeing your new uke at our jam for patrons.
@@TheUkuleleFool I got it today, so I will be playing it for the next Friday zoom and looking for a easy Motown song to play!

This instrument was very playable. I hear you on the VEry hard. I have seen that. I would never recommend an instrument that was hard to play.

It's actually pronounced "Donner" to rhyme with "honor"
Thanks! I just had a patron order this ukulele for herself this week.
@@TheUkuleleFool You're welcome. BTW, I love your bob haircut
I need a new ukulele!! Especially a free one.... A concert would work nicely 😀
That would be cool! Thanks for leaving comments. It really helped my channel grow subscribers.
Great review!
However, I got a bone to pick with you about what your shirt says. 🦴
LoL!!! That is my favorite t-shirt.
