New to the Uke, but sting player for 50 years. I want to explore Jazz standards on the Uke. Concert or Tenor? Opinions?
thank you for your response.

Or soprano, or baritone.
It's which suits you. You can play jazz on any size of uke, it's about the player not the instrument.
a recommendation for a "modest" priced Tenor suitable for Jazz?
I am a concert fan, but my "jazz/blues" ukes are tenors with low g. The lower you tune, the more benefit you get from a larger body (it's a string tension thing). Style of jazz should dictate what tones you are looking for, and then getting a uke that will get them for you. In other words, what would you like to hear coming out of that sound hole when you play your favorite jazz?
