So I started out on this $15 thing I bought from a store called EZ Price in the Marshall Islands. Yeah, you heard me, the Marshall Islands. It's like half way between Hawaii and New Zealand and I lived there for three years. How authentic am I?
Anyways, I gave away my uke to some kid when I left and then picked up a Lanikai soprano once I got back to the mainland. A few months later I strung it with Aquila and have been jamming on that for about a year now. I'm nothing special, certainly haven't taken formal lessons, but I can play a bit.
It's about time I buy a more serious uke. I'm in Seattle and have tried out some concert and tenor ukes at Dusty Strings. Aside from the obvious size, is there anything else I should consider when deciding between a concert or a tenor? I'm a bit torn. Both felt fine to me. The concert didn't feel too small, and the tenor didn't feel too big. I'm not a very big dude so my brain is telling me to buy the concert, but I really have no idea.
Any thoughts to help me decide?
