Bravo! You are very talented.

I did more measuring from bottom of 6th string to top of frets. I'm getting .24mm at the first fret and about 2mm at the 12th fret. My previous measurements were from the fret board. I'm going to get...

If you want to go very inexpensive Kmise makes a 20" guitalele for $80. This one has some good reviews on YouTube. Seems good for the price.

I'm glad you mentioned that fix with the string. I will add that idea to my list of things to try if I can't return this and exchange it for one that has a taller nut. That string idea would be a...

String tension seems to be similar to my Yamaha GL1 which has the same strings, Hannabach MT 890 1/8, and works great. Similar to my Cordoba Mini which also works great in E-E. Tension is lower than...

I am getting a little buzz on the 6th string, that's what got my attention. I have to be real gentle with it and that string is already hard to work with as a beginner. Guitar Center said they...

What is a standard string height for a guitalele?

I recently purchased a new Valenica GC-350 guitalele and the string height seems to be very low. It's lower than my Cordoba Mini M, and Yamaha...

FYI - For anybody that's interested, Guitar Center quoted me $120 for a new custom nut. That includes new strings. I'm not going to do it. I'll keep the GL1 as is and see how I like it after I have...

You got a good price! The best I can find to have one shipped to the Unites States is over $200 on eBay. That includes tax and shipping from Australia. Muziker does not ship internationally and the...

I was looking at the blanks on eBay but I think it may be too much trouble for too little gain. I will keep the GL1 as it is as a reminder that the tighter string spacing is hard to play and by...

Did you get a good deal on a Valencia VC350? I was shopping for one but ended up getting a Cordoba Mini M at Guitar Center. I would be interested in a Valencia VC350 if the price is low enough.

Do you have a suggestion of where to get a custom nut made for a GL1? I could use a little more room in between the strings on my GL1 if not too expensive.

Thanks for the follow up. I had some buyers remorse when I revived the book but now that I understand the material a little better I'm glad I have it.

Both sound good to me, but the EJ44's trebles sound a little sharper, better. I'm a music noobie so I'm not sure what a guitar is supposed to sound like. Really cool that you have two Mini's for the...

I'll try transposing by one octave on those low notes. I'm still pretty slow at finding the notes when I play so transposing on the fly will be a mind bender. Looking forward to trying it. Thanks!

My Baritone Beginners books says an open G string is an octave higher, see attachment. But now that you said the G string on the baritone is the same as the Low G on a tenor, they sound the same.
...

thank you. I have a lot from your book!

Wow! You just answered my next question. What's the deal with middle C. Now if I think of uke and piano as C3 and guitar as C4 then things make a little more sense.

Also the idea of playing my...

Ok that makes sense. The notes on the staff are for singing and the chords are what you play to go with the singing. This book and other "fake books" are not intended for picking notes. Thanks!!!

The book has many songs with notes below D, about 50% are that way. I know how to play those low notes with my low-G tenor. There is a statement in the book that states "the whole point of the book...

I attached a photo of an example from the book. How do I play that note on my baritone uke?

I am very new to playing instruments and music theory, so forgive me if I am not making sense.

Why does The Daily Ukulele Book Leap Year Edition by Liz and Jim Beloff song book have songs with...

Im getting over the singing hurdle too. Im in m 50s and over the years just about every time I tried singing karaoke I could barely make any sounds. I thought I literally cant sing, oh well a guy...

Aura Lee, the first practice piece that sounded like music when I played it. I am very new at instruments and the uke. I was plunking away on the practice notes in a beginner uke book and when I...
