this is ignorance on my part and in no way a reflection or criticism of the builders of my uke. I got a baritone today and was surprised that it seemed the action was harder/higher than on my tenor uke....they are both quality instruments set up by the vendor and I am sure my hands will adjust to the higher action if I need to, I am just curious if that is normal because of the longer scale of the baritone, heavier strings, etc.
Perhaps its the gauge of the strings on this particular baritone ? Any recommendations on changing strings ? I have no idea what the brand of strings are on this new uke. I am assuming that with lighter gauge strings, the action would be easier, but I would lose tone and volume ?
Thanks in advance for any input.
