I'm quite interested in the idea of 5 string ukuleles and I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with them. I generally play reentrant but I have had a low G in a concert once. On the concert I tended to find the drone of the low G unpleasant. Now I mainly play tenor ukuleles and I'm interested in a 5 string tenor, as it is different to a concert and it's no easy to find a 5 string to try out. I was wondering if anybody had any experience of such an instrument; how does the low and high G sound when strummed and picked in either case, is there any excesive drone?
In terms of paired strings, I also play the charango which has octaved E strings, but this is considerably higher in pitch.
Any opinions welcome.
Cheers.
