Perhaps because I came from a guitar background, I started off with a tenor. It seemed like a logical jumping off point - low G tuning with some additional fretboard room was sort of "guitar-like" and lots of people remarked on its versatility.
But I see a big interest in sopranos on the net and I wondered who among the UU faithful have experienced a change of heart and made the jump to soprano. The little uke may lend itself more towards a certain style of play - more strummed than fingerstyle, maybe? The Belgian YouTuber, Ukulelezaza is a monster fingerstyle player and all of his ukes are sopranos.

I had to laugh reading UKISOCIETY's response to a vid of his Ohana Sopranino when a poster commented on the great sound, "I'm actually looking for something smaller." LOL. But I know where he's coming from - the little ukes have a huge charm.
