I was wondering if anyone worried much about the resonant frequency of their Ukulele? There's a lot of data supporting head tension and resonant cavity affecting overall tone in Banjos, but I haven't seen much in the Ukulele world. Just for fun, I checked and my Luna Concert resonates at a near perfect E. The easy way to check this is to sing a low note in the sound hole with a tuner attached and then ramp up the frequency until it starts to really resonate. For me, it would be interesting to compare the resonance of 2 identical Ukuleles that had exceptional and average tone.
It would be interesting to see what the resonant frequency is of other Ukuleles to see if it makes a difference in tone or volume. For me, it would be interesting to compare the resonance of 2 identical Ukuleles that had exceptional and average tone. I had considered putting something in the cavity to try to change the frequency to see if that had an effect, but haven't made the time to do so.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone else had any data on this.
Thanks,
Bruce
