The problem to me is not to create a tenor guitar, you know steel strings and whatever.
What will keep it a uke but give me a better beat with a finger strum and louder output and allow decent solo work (whoops, I will be the chord guy not the solo guy!) "Nylon" strings and no amplification.
I come from a lifetime hobby instrument building, mostly according to the strict lore of Early Music/ classical building, I have got over all that now and am willing to go wild.
I like the idea of a tail stock and non fixed bridge. I am almost sold on no sound hole on the top of the sound board but in the side of the body. Quality strings are a must (?Aquila)
What are your ideas, how will you advise me?
