Hi, I've got a 1/4 size classical guitar (19" scale) that I've converted to a baritone ukulele, now I'm considering converting it again to an 8 string baritone. I'm thinking:
g g' d d' b b e' e'
so octaves for the lower strings and unisons for the higher strings, is this it's usually done?
Also I've tried aquilas on this uke before but they sounded out of place on the cheap laminate, so I'm looking for nylon strings, they give it a slightly clunkier sound that suits the build better I think...
Anyone have any suggestions for what strings I could get? I was thinking maybe piecing it together from two sets of classical guitar strings?
Many thanks
Johannes
