Ukulele Notes
the different ukulele sizes from soprano to baritone, their scale lengths and sound, and why i figured a concert uke is a good place to start
Personal
There are different sizes, which have names
- Soprano (smallest, strumming)
- Concert (chords and some single notes)
- Tenor (more mid range, more bass, bit louder, longer neck is good for single notes)
- Baritone (almost guitar sized - the size of a tenor guitar, bass, louder. The string tunings change. E B G D instead of A E C G on a Tenor)
Smaller doesn’t sound great, doesn’t intonate (stay in tune) well Smaller the body, the higher the pitch (more treble)
Lengths
between nut and saddle
13" Soprano
14-15" Concert
17" Tenor
19" Baritone
longer strings give you low notes
Conclusion: Concert ukulele is a good start
