∙ 14y agoIt looks very much like a small guitar with only four strings. The shape of the body, like that of the guitar, can vary. The most common type is the figure 8 sort of shape, some with a 'cut out' while the 'pineapple' is also popular.

I have a very traditional looking Ukulele with a pick-up in it. Unless someone sees the cable jack or the small adjustment knobs on the top side, you can't tell any difference. And is the cable jack is often incorporated into a strap knob, it is even less noticeable. These typically sound pretty good even without amplification.
There are electric ukuleles that have no 'body' and are more of a stick, just the strings and fret board with the pick-ups and bridge. I have a 'Les Paul' style electric/acoustic ukulele that looks more like an Electric Guitar then a traditional ukulele.
