😮😮 Hi Marco, big fan have recommended you too people who I think want to get their Uke playing past (Being a clown dog) just my little saying who can't see Ukulele as an Instrument and not a toy ! (With a smile) Anyway I have been teaching music for a lifetime, but as you know and I really like to push the idea to Guitarist who find it hard to get to next level above Rhythm and finger techniques is to play a Baritone or Tenor Ukulele in DGBE tuning because it's really those 4 strings of a guitar that they all find too hard. As this is about Q and A the question is " how do I improve my Guitar playing" my Answer " Play a Baritone or Tenor Ukulele tuned to D , they all go "Oh yea" Indigo Actually I have developed a method just using C maj which works well on G tuned Ukes but also on the D as well, on a first lesson they can play C major out each string (obviously Greek modes) but considering 90% of songs are in C they learn D to D on first string in C major ( Dorion) then G to G on second string (Mixo lydian) and so on they get the fretboard and develop originals over and over just using one Key.
Concert are around 38 cm and tenor 43. Inside the uku, you will find a tag with the model, try google it. Most of the time, tenor name model start with a T et concerto with a C. Hope it help you.
Measure from the saddle to the nut. This is the"scale length." Concert size is generally about 15 inches (38.1 cm). Tenor is about 17 inches (43.18 cm)
For this purpose though it won't make any difference you can play on concert, it might not sound quite as soulful as the sound will usually a little brighter on the concert especially if you have a high G string (G string tuned an octave higher in re-entrant tuning) it will still work though.
Ukulele Blues scale . The blues scales take the minor pentatonic scales and add the single notes. Making F, C and G sounds Beautiful.
Love minor blues!
Thank you this was so enlightening !
Please make a tutorial on Farewell by bernth

I have an old ukulele but I'm not sure whether it's a concert or tenor ukulele. How can I tell which size it is?
