I got a new Ebony and Rosewood Concert yesterday and it is extreamly weak voiced? It is a laminate and the strings are very thin. I generally play tenor or bartitone ukes and this Ebony is just limp when it comes to volume.
I'm thinking now that the strings just don't have enough mass to drive the top. My cheap Zebrawood concert is a lot louder and sweeter with Fremont Black lines on it. So I ordered a set of Fremont Low G's last night. Read on one review that the low G string was too big and had very low tension on a concert.I checked out my Zwood one an yes the G string is lower tensioned than the others but hey, that's the way it goes, right?
Am I one the right path?
