I have been a guitar player for about 38 years (though not a very good one) and have recently taken up the ukulele. I started out with a tenor uke. It really didn't take but a few minutes of playing for me to adjust to smaller size from the guitar. However, about a month ago I bought a concert ukulele. No matter how much I play it, I just can't seem to get comfortable with it. The frets are too close together. The instrument is even hard to hold because it is so small. I can't imagine trying to play a soprano!
So my questions is have any of you had similar experience trying to adapt to the smaller instruments? I'm wondering if I should give up on the concert size and settle on the tenor. I really love the size of the tenor, but like the idea of having a couple of different size ukes for their different sounds.
