Of course, suggestions will be subjective but feedback might be helpful. I’ve tried a guitar but besides not wanting to deal with two more strings, the necks are too wide for my somewhat small, very old hands. Extreme opposite: Tenor guitars have the strings too close together because of their very narrow necks. Also, because I live in a motorhome I prefer not to get one the size of a guitar.
My Ohana baritone with Sprucetop and rosewood body has a guitar like
Sound But the frets are too long (The distance between one fret marking and the next) especially near the nut.
Although like most people I would like to buy a Jumbo Tenor Uke that is inexpensive, I am willing to spend close to $1500 if necessary.
I might consider one that is built for steel strings if I could find specially coated ones not Just for the B & G but also for the E & B (Silk and steel, Phosphorus bronze etc.,?).
Look forward to your experience feedback!
