You can get a decent one from Amazon for a minimal investment. It's less intimidating to pick up an instrument if you get one that doesn't cost a fortune and still sounds good. If you have wee baby hands, get a Soprano, but otherwise the Concert sizes just sound nicer and they're just as easy to play.https://www.amazon.com/Kulana-Concert-Ukulele-Mahogany-Binding/dp/B01AAH5BIS

If you love it, and you want to upgrade your sound, please consider buying from an independent store. They are wonderful assets to the community, and have a wealth of knowledge, offer lessons, and can guide you as you develop as a musician. They can be intimidatingly cool-looking when you go in, but they're mostly just big music nerds who love to share their knowledge.

The ukulele is supposed to be one of the easier instruments to learn, so don't stress about it. Just enjoy yourself.

A couple of tips:

1. If you buy an inexpensive one, take it to a stringed instrument shop with a repair center (I prefer independent shops but Guitar Center might do in a pinch.) And get strap buttons added on. A uke is much easier to play when it's strapped to your chest.
   
2. While it's at the shop, have the pros check the sound for you and make any adjustments. Mine came with a bit of a buzz that some shims in the bridge and some witchcraft on the nut sorted out. The improvement was so worth it.
   
   3.Jumpin' Jim's Daily Ukulele is the best starter book. It's got 365 well known songs in there at degrees of difficulty ranging from suuuper easy to somewhat challenging. And there are kid's and Christmas songs in there too.
   
   
3. Youtube has tons and tons of videos on how to learn ukulele. There are videos for strumming patterns, picking, whatever you need.
   
   
4. Adderall.
   
   
5. Get a good tuner. Like this Snark.
   
   I hope you go for it! Even though I haven't used mine nearly as much as I want to, just bringing it down for a few strums soothes me and brings me joy.

This would be a good starter one.

This one is a bit more money, but I've heard good things about it too. It also comes with everything but the kitchen sink, and the gig bag is supposedly rather good.

Grab a tuner too. Yes, apps work. A tuner is really really handy though!

At the price you're willing to pay, I'd honestly avoid a solid wood top.
