1. Ukulele Soprano
The soprano is the smallest ukulele with a 33cm fingerboard. Due to its small size, this type is very easy to carry anywhere you want. This ukulele is perfect for those of you who have small fingers. When compared to other types, this soprano ukulele is highly recommended for beginners who want to start learning ukulele. This type of ukulele has a very distinctive sound and shape. The shape and sound are similar to the traditional ukulele that is often used in Hawaii.
2. Ukulele Concert
The Concert ukulele has a slightly larger fingerboard when compared to the saprano ukulele. The difference is not that much, which is only about 3cm. Because, the size is not too different, the sound it produces is still the same. This is the best choice for those of you who have bigger fingers. With a longer fingerboard size, it can be easier for you to adjust the pitch. This type is the type most widely used.
3. Tenor Ukulele
If you want to play the ukulele in a wider area, this type of ukulele is perfect to use. The size of the tenor's large body helps produce a stronger sound. With a 43cm fingerboard size, you can play a more stable pitch. Apart from the size, what distinguishes it is also in the sound produced. This type of ukulele sounds more like a guitar. Tenor ukulele is perfect for those of you who like to play with melodies.
4. Baritone ukulele
The baritone is an ukulele with the same tuning as the guitar, namely D-G-B-E ', but has a smaller fingerboard size of about 50 cm. This type is the least played ukulele when compared to the other 3 types of ukulele. Initially this type of ukulele became a bass function in the ukulele arrangement, but since the presence of the bass type, the baritone type has become a kind of intermediary for the two. However, because the bass ukulele is still unfamiliar, many people still use the ukulele baritone function as a bass ukulele.
5. Ukulele Bass
The ukulele bass is a new musical instrument innovation that is different from the usual ukulele. The idea for the bass ukulele was first coined by a small company, Road Toad. In 2007, Road Toad teamed up with Kala, one of the most popular ukulele makers, to make a bass ukulele at an affordable price. The ukulele bass is the size of a baritone but with a bass sound of course with E-A-D'-G 'tuning.
